An Edinburgh resident who suffers from cerebral palsy has said he is being ‘ignored’ by the council after the new traffic measures introduced will make his life ‘impossible’.
The authority's pilot Low Traffic Neighbourhood Scheme or LTN in Corstorphine aims to create a "safer and more comfortable street environment for residents to walk, cycle, wheel, and spend time in." Measures proposed include banning through traffic from certain streets.
Last month, Edinburgh Live reported that a group of residents including cyclists and motorists have banded together to oppose the plans as they claimed the measures were making roads more dangerous. Now a local with disabilities has spoken out about how the scheme will make his life more difficult.
