Also I would hazard a guess that the majority of residents of Devonshire Rd and all the associated roads in the area, Benson Ewelme, Tyson, Dunoon etc etc which we are discussing are not regular car drivers, ( ie do not use their car if they have one for a daily commute)


Well, we're plainly not representative residents, then. We generally do and sometimes two different vehicles as well.

I'd also mention that, following the planning inspectorate decision, it's likely that there will be a large increase in local residents in the next few years. I believe that the properties are squarely aimed at non-car owning occupants, but I'm sure there will be some to add to the numbers.

I've said before, the way to prevent rat-running is to make the existing trunk routes run more smoothly, not block to back routes, to the detriment of the residents there.
