Note: [This notice is about the continuation of the pedestrian and cycle zone in part of Lowden Road, which has been in force by an experimental order but will now be continued indefinitely by the new order described below. The pedestrian and cycle zone will continue to operate between 8 am and 9 am and between 3 pm and 4 pm on Mondays to Fridays, in school term-time.]

1. NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Council of the London Borough of Lambeth on 9th September 2020 made the Lambeth (Prescribed Routes) (No. 4) Traffic Order 2020 under sections 6 and 124 of and Part IV of Schedule 9 to the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984, as amended. The Order will come into force on 14th September 2020 and it will continue indefinitely the provisions of an experimental order that is currently in force.

2. The general effect of the Order will be to continue to ban motor vehicles from entering the length of Lowden Road that lies between Milkwood Road and Heron Road, during certain times of the day. This will be achieved by continuing the pedestrian and cycle zone in that length of Lowden Road, and by continuing to place barriers at the junctions of Lowden Road with Milkwood Road and Heron Road (when necessary), between 8 am and 9 am and between 3 pm and 4 pm on Mondays to Fridays, during school term-time.

3. The Order is necessary to continue to promote a pleasant environment that feels safer in the immediate vicinity of a school, to discourage travelling to school by car in cases where alternative means of travel are available, and to encourage walking, scooting and cycling to school, thereby achieving positive health outcomes for the school community.

4. If you have any enquiries about this matter, please send them by email to: schoolstreets@lambeth.gov.uk.

5. A copy of the Order and other documents giving detailed particulars about it (including a map) would usually be made available for inspection at the offices of Lambeth Council’s Highways Team (Resident Services), 3rd Floor, Civic Centre, 6 Brixton Hill, London SW2 1EG, until the last day of a period of six weeks beginning with the date on which the Order is made. However, owing to restrictions relating to the COVID-19 pandemic, this is not currently possible and documents are therefore available for inspection on line at: www.lambeth.gov.uk/traffic-management-orders. A copy of the Order and the other documents are also available on request, by email to: bpoulter@lambeth.gov.uk or by telephoning 020 7926 0209.

6. If any person wishes to question the validity of the Order or of any of its provisions on the grounds that it or they are not within the powers conferred by the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984, or that any requirement of that Act or of any instrument made under that Act has not been complied with, that person may, within 6 weeks from the date on which the Orders are made, apply for the purpose to the High Court.
