High Court Judge orders end to Croydon Council unlawful LTN (Including Holmesdale Road)

This may have affected some of you, unfortunately speaking from my own experience!

Croydon Council introduced Low Traffic Neighbourhoods which includes Holmesdale Road back in 2020, a high court judge has now deemed these to be illegal and surprise surprise just a money making scheme by Croydon Council.

This may mean that they will have to refund all of the fines paid.

I got stung by one of these when visiting the club shop back in October as there is a 50 metre section of Holmesdale Road that has one.

Any refunds that have to be made, might tip Croydon into the financial abyss 😀

And I have no doubt that Croydon will have to issue refunds to anyone who paid the fine(s)

Great news. Thanks for this. I got caught in Upper Ground turning into Holmesdale Road late morning last year. The restriction was poorly signed and is only 50 yards long with both ends open. I was fined £120 reduced to £60. We should demand £120 back with a 50% reduction for quick payment.

mine was turning left out of Upper Grove too, 50 yards as you say and completely pointless

I smell another 15% rates increase , i have heard a suggestion that services could be cut but there are no services left in Croydon to cut.I would like a Council amalgamation with another Council hopefully a competent one, well. they couldn't be less competent.

Hands off Bromley. We are debt free and have been for years. We don't want to merge with anyone.

So guess what we get punished by both Tory and Labour governments we have one of the smallest government funding per head in London. Meanwhile the inefficient and incompetent gets loads.

I will not be voting Tory at the next GE but will vote for them in Bromley because locally they do a good job.

I notice that at 3 tier level where Labour has been merging councils many are in debt and are being merged with more efficient ones. I wonder how the locals feel about that.

Now move onto ULEZ and the congestion charge, and stop Khan's cash cow.
