Low Traffic Neighbourhoods are a lot like the indoor smoking bans of a decade or so ago
I don’t. Euston Road is by far my quickest way between KGX, EUS, MYB, PAD. The alternatives you suggest are much slower and more tortuous to navigate than the Euston Road bus lanes. So no thanks pleas

Camden Council is asking for views on Camden High Street north of the tube station - deadline 20 March
Sorry to disappoint but the ones in Sidney St, Cambridge don’t work except with the responsible few. Which leaves quite a number slaloming at speed through the pedestrians not helped by the pedestrian
