    Hoxton West – Low Traffic Neighbourhood

    Hackney introduced measures using solid planters on either side of the roads to reduce the carriageway width. At Micawber Street, Ebenezer Street and Nile Street, a lockable bollard has been placed in the middle of these planters. The filter at Shepherdess Walk just south of the junction with Micawber Street does not include a lockable bollard and is instead being enforced by cameras in order to deter vehicles driving through the filters. Signs and road markings make it clear that regular vehicles cannot pass through.
