News on Newham Waltham Forest LTN

The LTN scheme will introduce new modal filters on certain roads, as part of the joint-borough commitment to prevent traffic from cutting through this area, which will create a better street environment for walking and cycling; and for social distancing. To reflect the new road layout, we will be placing wooden planters and new traffic signs, updating road markings, and installing enforcement cameras where required.

Area 2 is bounded by Cann Hall Road, Dames Road, Woodgrange Road, Forest Lane and Leyton Road. A total of twelve modal filters are proposed; seven of these are in Newham and five are in Waltham Forest. Works started on 24 August 2020 on the seven modal filters in Newham, which are located on Bow Street, Ash Road, Buckingham Road, Odessa Road (South), Wooder Gardens, Field Road and Clinton Road.

Newham Council’s appointed contractor (Ringway Jacobs) will be carrying out the works, which will take approximately five working days to complete, subject to weather conditions. During this time there may be some disruption, although we will try to minimise this as far as possible. We apologise in advance for any inconvenience caused and appreciate your patience while we carry out the works.

For further scheme information and detailed locations of the modal filters, please visit 'A detailed explanation of the scheme' section on the scheme website.
