Written question asked by Lord Berkeley (Labour) on Monday, 13 April 2026, in the House of Lords. It was due for an answer on Monday, 27 April 2026. It was answered by Lord Hendy of Richmond Hill (Labour) on Monday, 27 April 2026 on behalf of the Department for Transport.


Low Traffic Neighbourhoods

Question

To ask His Majesty's Government whether the statutory guidanceĀ Implementing low traffic neighbourhoods, published on 17 March 2024, is current government policy.

Answer

The guidance was published in draft in March 2024 but never brought into force. The Government is considering next steps and more information will be made available in due course.

As is longstanding policy, local authorities are best placed to decide what traffic management schemes are appropriate, including low-traffic neighbourhoods, but they should always be developed through engagement with local communities.
