High Court Quashes West Dulwich LTN With Immediate Effect – Lambeth
Denied Right to Appeal and Now Faces Questions Over £1m in Fines
London, UK – The High Court has issued a landmark Order, immediately quashing the West
Dulwich Low Traffic Neighbourhood (LTN), denying Lambeth Council permission to appeal,
and requiring the Council to pay £35,000 towards the legal costs incurred by the West
Dulwich Action Group (WDAG).
The ruling opens the door to serious questions about the £1,080,580 at the last count in
fines issued to residents and motorists since the scheme was introduced — money raised
under what the Court has now declared to be unlawful.
This marks the first time local residents and businesses have successfully overturned an
LTN through the High Court, setting a powerful precedent and raising significant implications
for councils across the UK.
