As part of the Climate Safe Streets Campaign LCC asked Newham Mayoral candidates to pledge to the Newham “asks” which were:
- Borough-wide Low Traffic Neighbourhoods and cycle friendly connection between them.
- Good quality cycle provision for the whole of Romford Road and Barking Road.
- A 20 mph speed limit on all borough roads.
- All schools to benefit from school street treatment.
- Effective enforcement of parking rules across the borough.
To date a commitment to these asks has been given by the Green Party candidate Rob Callender and by the Liberal Democrat candidate Saleyha Ahsan.
I will update on any further commitments.
