FOI request detail

Lancaster avenue LTN

Request ID: FOI-2886-2223
Date published: 06 March 2023

You asked

Please disclose all correspondence between TfL and Lambeth Council regarding Lancaster Avenue, in the context of Lambeth’s proposed West Dulwich street improvements/ West Dulwich low traffic neighbourhood. I am particularly interested in any views expressed by TfL on what type of modal filter would be possible on Lancaster Avenue, given that overweight vehicles continue to need to access the road . Can I have communications between January 2022 and February 2023 please? And actually I would be interested in anything concerning Lancaster Avenue. What I know from councillors is that "a full modal filter on the road has been ruled out", but I am interested in both communications about this modal filter and also communications about other potential measures/matters

Thank you for your revised request which we received today 9 February 2023, asking for correspondence between TfL and Lambeth Council regarding Lancaster Avenue.
