Sadly the #Heavitree and #Whipton #ActiveStreets #LTN looks set to be cancelled. https://road.cc/content/news/cyclists-urge-councillors-not-scrap-divisive-ltn-308623 There are links to the #ExeterCyclingCampaign in the post if anyone feels like sending a last ditch email to the councillors.
“The inconvenience of some drivers should not override the benefits available from building active lives and reducing road danger and carbon pollution”
Brave residents from #Heavitree are becoming 'human bollards' right now and all this week to try and enforce the bus gates in the #ActiveStreets Trial, and shame the council & police into enforcing these parts of the trial.
Please give them all the support you can: in person and on line.
Call to action to save the #Heavitree #ActiveStreets trial, before an #Exeter highways committee meeting on the 23rd
More information and a link to a template letter here highways committee on the 23rd. This proposes removing the ability to make a decision from our elected councillors, and lays the ground for halting the trial, just six months into the 18 month trial period.
