I’m absolutely delighted the Leith Low Traffic Neighbourhood (LTN) has been made permanent today. This is the right decision for Leith, and will help to lock in the traffic reductions, safer streets and cleaner air that this scheme has already delivered.

🚨 Very important to write to the TRO committee (see link) on this one. Remind them of the multiple benefits of LTNs and to show forward-thinking & leadership. If you visit or live in Leith give anecdotes on how the LTN benefits you
