Department for Transport written question – answered at on 17 May 2024.

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether he has conducted a cost benefit analysis of Low Traffic Neighbourhoods.
Guy Opperman
Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport)
Any cost benefit analysis of individual Low Traffic Neighbourhoods (LTNs) would be a matter for individual local authorities. The review into LTNs concluded they could provide some benefits, but many councils had failed to engage fully with local residents before introducing them. As a result, we have strengthened statutory guidance which will set expectations for comprehensive and in-depth local engagement, and full consideration of the needs of all road users in LTN schemes.

Secretary of State was originally the title given to the two officials who conducted the Royal Correspondence under Elizabeth I. Now it is the title held by some of the more important Government Ministers, for example the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs.
