We are a group of Bath residents who have created this campaign to raise awareness of the local Councils plans to install extreme and experimental traffic measures without proper consultation of residents. So called 'Low Traffic Neighbourhoods' are dividing communities, creating congestion, worse air quality and causing stress for those who live in the city. There are plans to take these awful schemes further and install more bollards, block off roads, cameras, fines, enforcement, and ultimately the 'fifteen minute neighbourhood' concept. The members of the local Council seem intent on pushing through these measures at any cost, but we are finding the majority of residents and businesses in the city do not want these ridiculous, experimental and costly schemes. The fightback has begun.

Against the wishes of residents BANES Council enacted a CAZ in the city, promising it would only apply to vans, they installed the cameras and infrastructure despite the people giving a resolute NO during a consultation some years ago. Now some residents tell of the impact it's had on their lives and the awful way it's being enforced.
Bath residents are puzzled, why are all these bizarre and nonsensical traffic schemes popping up ?

Bath residents have had enough of the insane traffic schemes that are being implemented in the city at huge cost! These schemes are expressly aimed at creating congestion, stress, and difficulties with an end game of making it so horrible to drive that people will switch to a bike, scooter or walking. They have forgotten about the elderly, infirm, disabled, and those who simply want to choose h...

Marie John a Southlands resident tells us how she wasn't consulted & how the scheme is a disaster
Переглядів 349Рік тому
Bath resident Marie John tells us about the BANES Council consultation process. It sounds like it's more effort to object in the survey questions and even if you can find the consultation, fill it in and submit it, the Council will ignore it and go ahead with what THEY want to do regardless. We can not let this continue in Bath.

He explains how the BANES consultation is not truly representative and how the traders simply are not being listened to.

Will this channel will become active again? What about Sydney place and the stuck coach that ended up knocking down the stone pillar - 4K + signatures against the closure, and so on....
BANES Council are a worse than a criminal gang.
Bet you still vote Lib Dem or Tory 🤷🏻♀️ It was time ages ago to put up or shut up, probably too late now.
LIKE TURKEYS VOTING FOR CHRISTMAS - YOU VOTED THEM IN AGAIN !!!
How much did this cost the council tax payers? Time to vote out the Fascists in the council who come up with this rubbish.
I live in Bath and have a porsche 911 I love the cancel and have a hse with parking for 3 cars 😅
THE ROADS ARE PUBLIC ROADS NOT COUNCIL ROADS, WE OWN THEM NOT THE COUNCIL,SO UNLESS THEY SHOW YOU THE DOCUMENTS STATING THAT THEY DO THEN YOU ARE PERFECTLY ENTITLED TO REMOVE THEM,,WE OWN THEM
It is plain to see “This Lib Dem Council are not fit for purpose and our Heritage City is doomed to failure - where more and more Tourists are afraid to come and visit our City of Bath”.
LIKE I TELL EVERYONE,THE ROADS ARE PUBLIC, NOT COUNCIL,WE THE PEOPLE OWN THEM NOT THE COUNCIL, YOU PAY THEM TO REPAIR THEM,NOT TO OWN THEM, THEY DON'T OWN THE TARMAC, THEY DON'T OWN THE SUBSTRATE UNDER IT, THEY HAVE FOOLED EVERYONE INTO THINKING THEY DO,,THEY DON'T, NEVER PAID A PARKING TICKET SINCE 1990 WHEN I FOUND ALL THIS OUT, A COMPANY PENALTY NOT A FINE, THEY ARE NOT THE COURT, £1000 PENALTY, LIABILITY, THEY CAN'T HOLD A MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC LIABLE FOR ANY INTERNALY GENERATED RULES,,ALL SMOKE AND MIRRORS GUYS, HOLLOW THREATS, COULD BE, MAYBE, LIABLE, ETC ETC, THE WORD THEY CAN'T USE IS ,,WILL,, THEY RELY ON THE WORDED THREATS, BAILIFFS ARE THE SAME,NO LEGAL DOCUMENTS, HOPING YOU FALL FOR IT,, GIVE THEM NOTHING
It’s Bristol what do you expect. The city is a disaster area with no laws.
Im absolutely shocked that people are allowing this to happen !
they snuck all this under the cover of lockdown....alot of councils were ready for this.....makes you think
Absolutely ridiculous protest. Making areas better for pedestrians is a nice thing. It's undermined by the appalling state of public transport in the UK, so how about you spend your time demanding better transport links instead of having a tantrum over minor traffic diversion. The problem is that the UK's only efforts to deal with ridiculous car traffic is to make driving a bit harder or more expensive. What you SHOULD be getting is opportunities to not have to drive as much.
Petrol Diesel or electric, you will not be alloud to drive your car for much longer, they want to take them away from you. MOVE THEM OUT THE WAY !✌
You all need to talk to Vera Woodhouse for causing us all such misery.
Fight back across Bath and remove the barriers where this truly impacts business, residents and allied parties, don’t pay your council taxes until they agree to a common sense solution to solve both parties concerns.
I cycled into bath thru lockdown. As soon as the traffic returned it was too dangerous. The danger came mostly from being passed by LGVs on the A roads outside the city. Reality is a that as long as we like shopping the roads are for vehicles and cyclists place themselves at danger by trying to use them. We can’t replace LGVs with bicycles so we need to stop this nonsense and accept that we need cars, vans and lorries until something better is invented. Embrace the automobile and get rid of fuel tax and our economy will start to boom again. Better for us all.
Take back your streets Bath, residents should just remove these stupid barriers
Move them
Don't argue about de car space don't use cars . And have a little think how this started.
15minute cities plan is a WEF top down, total control system, they are rolling it out, creating division makes them stronger. Love your neighbours come together
The people just voted them back in……you get what you vote for!
Complete none-compliance with the whole system refuse to work, refuse to pay council bills, do not comply with this new world order.
I'm curious what was the result of the may 4th election? Did this nonsense get taken care of? Or did the mindless masses vote in the same people because they are ignorant to the events transpiring around them?
We seem to living in a democratic dictatorship, i.e. you vote someone into power then they tell you what your going to get, time to get back to people in power serving the best interests of the people who put them there.
This is part of the WEF. They not only have the heads of countries and corporations under their thumb, but they have set up conventions where Mayors from all over are invited to "improve society". This is why you're seeing these 15 minute cities and restrictions on anything that makes people independent, popping up all over. This bs needs to stop. The whole WEF grouping should be illegal as it is not an elected group yet they are deciding things without the consent of the people. And all because they have money. Not one of their ideas are for themselves. Just everyone else to follow. It's disgusting and evil.
They’ve just voted the buggers back in so tough!
This 15 min city ideology has to be stamped out
Our government had no right making promises regarded Net Zero and 15 minute cities before consulting the people first. What you have here is the Government forcing these things onto us against our will because of the promises they made to the world forum. Since when did the world forum rule this democratic country? Stupid Billionaires telling us how to live our lives...
WE are the carbon they want rid of.....when are people going to wake up?
Vote then - wake up
These lunatics looking to spend a huge sum of your tax money on this crap that is designed to slowly take away your freedom to choose where you go.
I see they gone and put in a load of stupid cycle lanes where people used to park up, like they have also done in Southampton. Total idiots, why I didn't vote this time and wont in the next general election. Why would anyone vote for this shit?
SET FIRE TO THE BLOODY THINGS
Councillors + politicians are only interested in policies that line their pockets and nothing else
I was in Bath recently ( not the nicest experience ,unfortunately) Thought , I know lets use busses to get about so went to the bus station . No bus routes shown . No time tables . No information . No one to help or advise .So based on this I can only assume the Bath Council dont want visitors to the city or want them to pay exorbitant car parking charges . Its a town I wont go to agian .
how's the old "ArGh VoTe ThEm OuT" thing going, everyone?
LTN’s derived from evil including ULEZ expansion in London and 15 minute cities. All will cause non people movement and mental stressed disorders. End this utopian future madness 😡
And Yet last week the Liberal Democrats held Bath in the council elections.
Several reports about residents having to drive further to get around these blockages. How can that be green.
They arent fixing the roads on purpose as they dont want us driving cars.
Welcome to C40 chaps! Rolling out to a town near you .
It's funny that many of the towns who were early to adopt these measures are now saying they don't work. Meanwhile others are still planning to adopt them !!!!!
The left........
Be interesting to see how bath vote next time, think this will show what they want in the future.
Keep fighting the nonsense.
us mear ants dont matter to the government..this movie is all about them
The injustice goes back years in Bath. Like when it was found guilty in court to handing land donated to the people to a commercial developer who charged the people for using the land. Dictator councils that hide behind a crooked democracy are the worse kind of tyrant.
Bloody madness dividing communities and creating more pollution. Keep fighting to have these planters removed
Unfortunately, residents of my former home city have a tendency to vote for virtue signalling Liberal Democrats. Vote for people who have a realistic understanding of how people want to lead lives including use of their own cars.
