Reassess Meanwood Junction.

The Issue

‘Meanwood Junction’ was completed in Sept 2024. It has now been 2 months and instead of improvement it has created more air pollution and standing traffic. 
This proposal was already voted against by people in the local community, & ignored. Since completion of works residents now have longer journeys, restricted access and are forced to use back streets to gain entry to and from some of the roads. 
If this junction is to remain as it is the heightened air pollution will only increase with potential accidents caused through residential streets. 
The junction needed improving but as requested by local residents this could have been achieved through other alternatives. 
The use of so many traffic lights and crossings are not beneficial or effective. Since completion in Sept 2024 already 2 local businesses have closed. 
The residents of Meanwood would like a change to take place with the removal of the traffic lights and solutions to provide more free flowing traffic.
