Please respond to the consultation as soon as possible and before 26 May 2025*

The Council are encouraging residents to respond with comments both for and against the LTN and with suggestions for changes that might make it work better for residents. 

The West and East Greenwich LTN has been in place since 27 November.  Starting on 2 January, all vehicles except buses, cycles and authorised vehicles have been fined if they cross the railway line on Westcombe Hill, Halstow Road, Vanbrugh Hill or Maze Hill between the hours of 7  – 10am and 3 – 7pm Monday to Friday.  This also affects St John’s Park and a number of roads in West Greenwich.  Restrictions currently apply on Bank Holidays except Christmas Day.

 

The restrictions don’t apply to blue badge holders but we understand that Blue Badge holders need to register for exemption along with others who might be eligible. More information about how to apply for an exemption permit can be found on http://royalgreenwich.gov.uk/traffic-management-scheme.

 

All residents should have received a letter and leaflet about the scheme and an invitation to Public meetings (see separate post).  Further information can be found at royalgreenwich.gov.uk/greener-safer-greenwich.
