THE rollout of the first low traffic neighbourhoods in Oxford has begun, with planters and bollards placed across residential roads to stop drivers using them as shortcuts. The Cowley LTN scheme, approved for a six-month trial by Oxfordshire County Council, is the first of its kind in the city or the county. In LTNs, bollards or planters are used to turn through-roads into cul-de-sacs to deter drivers from rat running, and the first of these traffic filters have now been put in place on roads in Cowley. The rollout began on Monday, March 1, and residents have said they have already started to notice the difference.
