@jackstevensbass I agree to an extent, as it’s quite mixed in terms of shops, especially the east side opposite the new jewellery shop. My point was it’s not a back alleyway and the footfall towards to the ice cream shop on the corner alone makes a difference in the summer ;)
Sun 30 Oct 2022 · 21:15Reply
@jackstevensbass Why ‘really bizarre’? :) ok, it’s not Church St which most likely would have been more expensive, and vacant shops are rare there, but it’s still a nice little parade of shops with decent footfall.

@ETWriteHome @SimonZev “Traffic evaporation” is like climate change. Some people don’t believe it despite the evidence :) rapidtransition.org/stories/reduci…. “…but in many cases, when you reduce road capacity, existing motor traffic doesn’t just find another route. Some of it ‘disappears’, or ‘evaporates’.”
Sun 30 Oct 2022 · 11:28Reply
@SimonZev @ETWriteHome I think 24/7 Bus Gate would have been too radical and daytime restriction was rightly seen as a good compromise to at least achieve significant benefits during the day (schools, shopping etc.). The trial ends on March 2023 when the scheme will either be altered, kept or abandoned
Sun 30 Oct 2022 · 11:21Reply
@ETWriteHome @SimonZev Ultimately, the council’s stated aims are to ‘create cleaner, quieter streets’ and ‘support people to walk, shop and cycle’. Stoke Newington Church St is part of that effort. It’s now cleaner, quieter and safer for cyclists and pedestrians within the constraint of the bus traffic
Sun 30 Oct 2022 · 11:09Reply
@ETWriteHome @SimonZev It’s still considerably less than the endless stream of through traffic pre-Bus Gate. The monitoring data makes that very clear. The Bus Gate is only a year old, and over time I suspect less and less drivers who aren’t allowed to drive through it, will.
Sun 30 Oct 2022 · 11:06Reply
@ETWriteHome @SimonZev 70% of eligible roads in Hackney are in LTNs. Church St has 112 businesses, many shops and restaurants, and isn’t a main ‘A Road’ like the High St, so it was decided to limit daytime traffic there, in part to make it a more attractive shopping and dining street during the day.
Sun 30 Oct 2022 · 11:02Reply
@ETWriteHome @SimonZev No. Just the list I mentioned.
Sun 30 Oct 2022 · 10:51Reply
@ETWriteHome @SimonZev Which ‘certain cars’? It’s buses, emergency vehicles, waste and Blue Badge holders only. Anyone else you see driving through the Bus Gate isn’t allowed. Very small group of motor vehicles. Having reduced traffic in Church St for 12hr a day still has great benefits in my opinion
Sun 30 Oct 2022 · 10:46Reply
@ETWriteHome @SimonZev So all or nothing? :) I think a compromise is a valid third option to have at least some benefits rather than none whatsoever. The Bus Gate, like other LTN filters, is designed to also deter people from making short car journeys, by making driving through Hackney inconvenient.
Sun 30 Oct 2022 · 10:34Reply
@ETWriteHome @SimonZev Why would you rather have a constant stream of through traffic in Church Street during the day? Maybe the Bus Gate will become 24/7 one day, but 7am-7pm is again in my opinion better than nothing. At least brunch and lunch outdoor diners benefit from it ;) and many other people.
Sun 30 Oct 2022 · 09:47Reply
@ETWriteHome @SimonZev Well, given it’s used by three bus routes I doubt full, permanent pedestrianisation will ever be practical, so reducing daytime traffic, widening the pavements and creating continuous pavements at junctions is the next best option so I’d take it over doing nothing at all.
Sun 30 Oct 2022 · 09:26Reply
@ETWriteHome @SimonZev Isn’t minimising daytime traffic in Church St so it’s nice and quiet, making outdoor dining and shopping more attractive (i.e. helping local businesses) as well as safer for cyclists and pedestrians a significant benefit of the Bus Gate?

@CKE1977 Of course not. When is there ever a consensus about anything in life? :) Every 4 years residents elect local councillors and a mayor to pursue an agenda they put in front of voters. Not everyone in the borough is going to be onboard with it and like it but that’s how it works.
Thu 27 Oct 2022 · 10:42Reply
@CKE1977 The overdue LTN monitoring data report, a year after the Bus Gate was installed, will allow us all to see the actual figures to assess the impact (positive and negative). The previous one showed that the impact of displaced traffic hasn’t been as catastrophic as some people claim
Thu 27 Oct 2022 · 10:35Reply
@CKE1977 Well, there are people who also live here and see many benefits of the Bus Gate. Some love it, some hate it. In March 2023 it’ll be decided if it’ll be kept or not following the 18-months trial. Given 70% of eligible roads in Hackney are in LTNs, I expect it’ll be kept.
Wed 26 Oct 2022 · 23:26Reply
@MillarCaroline @CKE1977 'at a time when people can’t afford the basics' some people still seem OK speeding, parking on double yellow and many other offences that incur a fine. Driving through a 'No Motor Vehicle' sign is no different. They should know better or brush up on their driving theory.

@GrumpyHatchling @alisooon @VictorianLondon @limebike @TfL @humanforest_uk I’m not aware of any consultation about placing the council’s bike stands for Lime. Maybe there was one.

Tue 25 Oct 2022 · 19:38Reply
@GrumpyHatchling @alisooon @VictorianLondon @limebike @TfL @humanforest_uk Pavement is part of the public highway so I cannot see how they can declare part of it their parking spot for their bikes without permission from the council, in this case Islington council.
Tue 25 Oct 2022 · 18:57Reply
@GrumpyHatchling @alisooon @VictorianLondon @limebike @TfL @humanforest_uk In case it wasn’t clear I 100% in agreement with you. I’m pointing out that we’ve lost the battle. Hire bikes, whether Lime or HF will continue to clutter and block pavements because too many people couldn’t be asked to park them so they don’t create an obstacle on the pavement.
Tue 25 Oct 2022 · 18:52Reply
@GrumpyHatchling @alisooon @VictorianLondon @limebike @TfL @humanforest_uk The reality is that the majority of people simple don’t care. They hop off and dump the bike with very little consideration for other people. Even in this so-called ‘Green Bay’ they could have parked the bike against the wall, but clearly couldn’t be asked to do so. Not surprised
Tue 25 Oct 2022 · 18:49Reply
@alisooon @GrumpyHatchling @VictorianLondon @limebike @TfL @humanforest_uk Not there isn’t a parking stand :) that’s the problem. It’s just the pavement. Hackney and Lime agreed that Lime bikes can only be parked in the few cycle hire stands the council installed, though in reality and for various reasons you’ll rarely see a Lime bike parked there.
Tue 25 Oct 2022 · 18:47Reply
@GrumpyHatchling @alisooon @VictorianLondon @limebike @TfL @humanforest_uk What do you mean by “irresponsibly” in this context? Human Forest decided that bit of the pavement is their Green Bay hence bikes are parked there in the middle of the pavement. Where else in that ‘Green Bay’ do they expect people to park exactly? There’s no parking stand.
Tue 25 Oct 2022 · 18:30Reply
@GrumpyHatchling @alisooon @VictorianLondon @tetsell @limebike @TfL @humanforest_uk There’s a ‘Green Bay’ in that spot as indicated in the app. Isn’t the whole idea of a ‘Green Bay’ that you can park there for free without paying £1.50 if you park ‘outside of a Green Bay’? What am I missing here? :) https://t.co/AZXu3koOt5
Tue 25 Oct 2022 · 17:14Reply
@GrumpyHatchling @alisooon @VictorianLondon @tetsell @limebike @TfL @humanforest_uk Pretty certain that spot is a designated “Green Bay” by Human Forest, which means you don’t pay £1.50, hence why so many bikes get dumped there in the pavement humanforest.co.uk/locations

Don’t expect 2-way for buses and cyclists in Stoke Newington High Street any time soon. Feels like a 2032 thing now to me. This was way back in 2019: “TfL updates plans to ditch Stoke Newington gyratory - and work could start by autumn” hackneygazette.co.uk/news/22932429.… x.com/Microlambert/s…

@NightingaleE5 The council gave the keys to “parklet keepers”, which are local businesses close to the parklet who volunteered to take on the role. Two have keepers and have been unblocked. They haven’t been locked since as far as I can tell. Maybe only at night if residents complain about ASB.

@martyj21 @BANKS164 @kayegodleman I reckon it mainly bothers those that don’t live here and consider it the ‘middle of nowhere’ that ‘takes ages to get to’ when they don’t see it on the Tube map.

@A_d_e_s_a_n_u Must have been a bad day. I’m often there during the day and unless there’s roadwork there or somewhere else and traffic is diverted down that way, I’ve rarely seen it this busy. I hope you survived that day.

@A_d_e_s_a_n_u Which road is that in the photo?
Sun 16 Oct 2022 · 20:50Reply
@stokeywheels My take on it is that in a huge city of 9 million people, getting to residential areas, even inner-city ones like neighbourhoods in Hackney will always take a while if you don’t live next door to them. Even if there’s a Tube nearby, it often involves a bus journey.
Sun 16 Oct 2022 · 17:07Reply
@iambrianjones @Microlambert I think that’s pushing it :) 15min walk to Clissold Park and the closest useful bus stop is the 106 in Blackstock Rd 8min away. You might as well continue to Finsbury Park to get the 106 outside or Manor House and get the 141, 341 outside down Green Lanes to Clissold Park.
Sun 16 Oct 2022 · 16:31Reply
@Microlambert Dalston Kingsland and Dalston Junction Overground stations also very handy given frequency of 149, 76, 243 and 67 buses. The reality is that for some, it all comes down to a Tube station, and there isn’t one in Church St. Fire Station would have been a good location though ;)

Is it really THAT difficult to get to Stoke Newington by public transport given it has an Overground station (12min from Liv St) and the 73, 393, 476, 106, 149, 76, 67, 243, 276 buses? What do people expect? 2 Tube stations in the middle of Church St and 5min bus from X Cross? :)
