Written question asked by Andrew Bridgen (Independent (affiliation)) on Wednesday, 8 May 2024, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Monday, 13 May 2024. It was answered by Guy Opperman (Conservative) on Friday, 17 May 2024 on behalf of the Department for Transport.


Low Traffic Neighbourhoods

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether he has conducted a cost benefit analysis of Low Traffic Neighbourhoods.

Answer

Any cost benefit analysis of individual Low Traffic Neighbourhoods (LTNs) would be a matter for individual local authorities. The review into LTNs concluded they could provide some benefits, but many councils had failed to engage fully with local residents before introducing them. As a result, we have strengthened statutory guidance which will set expectations for comprehensive and in-depth local engagement, and full consideration of the needs of all road users in LTN schemes.
