I am writing to request information regarding fines issued in relation to breaches of Low Traffic Neighbourhood schemes or ‘LTNs’ in your authority.
LTN schemes sometimes go by different names in different areas, e.g. Active Neighbourhoods, Living Streets, Spaces for People. Here is a definition if helpful:
‘A low traffic neighbourhood (LTN) is a residential area, bordered by main roads (roads that are often used by buses, lorries and non-local traffic), where “through” motor vehicle traffic is discouraged or removed, while allowing access for pedestrians and cyclists.’
Please could you provide me the following information regarding LTNs under your area:
* The number of fixed penalty notices (or any other types of fine) issued to people for breaching Low Traffic Neighbourhoods in your authority from May 2020 – Present;
* And the total value of fixed penalty notices (or any other types of fine) issued to people for breaching Low Traffic Neighbourhoods in your authority from May 2020 – Present;
* The total value of fixed penalty notices (or any other types of fine) issued to people for breaching Low Traffic Neighbourhoods in your authority for the financial year 2021/22.
* Please could you state how much revenue you expect to collect in the current financial year (or have forecasted in your budget) from fixed penalty notices (or any other type of fine) in relation to LTN breaches.
* And how much it has projected or forecasted to collect from LTN breach related PCNs/fines in the next two financial years?
Devon County Council does not have any Low Traffic Neighbourhoods in Devon, i.e. area-wide measures to prevent through traffic in residential areas, therefore Devon County Council does not hold any of this information.
