Bounds Green LTN
We introduced the low traffic neighbourhood (LTN) in Bounds Green to create a safer, cleaner and quieter neighbourhood as part of our Haringey Streets for People programme.
Most traffic congestion and pollution is caused by motor vehicles that are passing through Haringey. We know this because car ownership in Haringey is low and falling, but there's more traffic on our roads.
The LTN aims to:
- reduce through-traffic and road danger
- improve air quality
- make it safer and easier to walk, wheel, scoot, cycle and shop locally
It reclaims local streets for the community living there, making them once more welcoming, liveable spaces where people can meet, chat and socialise, and where children can play.
Exemptions
Some vehicles are exempt from the LTN restrictions – for example, emergency vehicles and vehicles registered to Blue Badge holders.
