A low traffic neighboured is being proposed for the Westcombe Park and Maze Hill area of Greenwich. Proposals to introduce a Low Traffic Neighbourhood (LTN) in an part of central Greenwich has been launched, aiming to improve the area s air-quality and safety. The LTN, which uses modal filters, bollards, cameras and planters to block off certain residential routes to cars in heavy traffic areas, is being proposed for the Westcombe Park and Maze Hill area. The proposals will make the roads cleaner and safer for residents, improving the environment and reducing rat-running through traffic, say Greenwich Council. But LTNs deployed elsewhere in central London, including Lewisham and Croydon, have proved extremely controversial.
