Your request
Please may I have copies of any emails that mention Probyn Road sent by any member of the transport team in 2022.
As background, I'm trying to understand & be able to explain why the Probyn Road - Palace Road rat run wasn't filtered as part of Streatham Hill LTN. I think it's the only residential road in any LTN that isn't being filtered, & that it should be.
I'd be happy with an explanation instead of this request being fulfilled.
Our response
Many thanks for your enquiry regarding the Streatham Hill LTN. Over the course of the trial period, we closely monitored the impact on traffic flows in the area and resultantly published two rounds of monitoring. Stage 1 data was published shortly after the trial was launched and Stage 2 was published once the scheme had time to bed in. You can read the Stage 1 data here and the Stage 2 data here.
We have been analysing this data and hearing from residents and we acknowledge the increase in traffic numbers on Palace Road near Probyn Road. As a result, we will be looking into this matter further to understand the location better and consider possible options for reducing traffic flows. We will be carrying this out over the winter and expect to have a further update early in the new year.
