How long before the Traffic Taliban make driving so miserable we'll never get in our cars again? LOUISE PERRY reports on the creeping war against motorists as dozens of LTNs pop up across the country

Not far from our home in South London, some large, colourful flowerbeds are at the centre of a nasty row. Set up in the middle of a junction that is now dubbed 'Dulwich Square', these planters filled with geraniums were installed to block the traffic that used to run between the South Circular and Central London.

They are designed to protect residential roads from noise and pollution as part of a controversial Low Traffic Neighbourhood (LTN) scheme, one of a flurry that were introduced in 2020 with £225 million in emergency government funding, which was allocated to councils to encourage walking and cycling.

In this mission creep in the war against the motorist, dozens of LTNs have popped up all over London, as well as in York, Bath, Sheffield, and Manchester. In Cambridge, it was reported that residents are outraged over the prospect of a £5 charge being introduced if they want to drive their car into the city centre.
