A High Court judge has ruled in favour of a group of residents and businesses challenging a proposed low-traffic neighbourhood (LTN) scheme in West Dulwich, South London. The West Dulwich Action Group (WDAG) launched legal action against Lambeth Council, successfully halting the experimental scheme.
The residents and businesses argued that the council had disregarded their concerns and unfairly excluded local businesses from the consultation process. Their legal challenge asserted that the council's approach was "so unfair as to be unlawful." The court's decision marks a significant victory for the WDAG, who had voiced strong opposition to the LTN proposal. Further details regarding the judge's ruling and the future of the LTN scheme are expected to be released soon.
