Document summary
The aim of the study is to examine the potential benefits and harms of new Low-traffic neighbourhood (LTN) schemes, understand the experiences of those living in or near LTNs, and consider how policymakers can navigate controversy. Questions we want to answer include:
Do new LTNs lead to greater levels of, and more diverse, walking and cycling, compared to areas without them?
What are the health benefits from these schemes (e.g. reduced road injury risk)?
Do these schemes cause harms, including congestion on boundary roads or longer journeys for those disabled people who are reliant on cars?
How do local people experience and respond to LTNs?
How can policymakers navigate controversy surrounding these schemes, and make them more inclusive?
