I signed - the road/pavement is far too narrow for some vehicles. My coat was clipped on this road, breaking my phone - the traffic really is that close.

However all the main roads in SE23 exceed the NO2 limit.

Brockley Rise exceeds the limit by quite a distance - Dalmain primary school gets it far worse than Fairlawn.
There should be a separate wider control to deal with this issue.

And it is important - after all it is estimated 10,000 die in london every year due to traffic pollution - imagine the hysteria if ISIS regularly picked off that number of Londoners. We wouldn't leave our homes.

I work that out as 38 people in SE23 dying every year because of NO2/particulates from traffic.
That is a pub full of people, and remember - you don't get to choose which pub.
