This petition is set up to get the Local Council to stop using the Blunt instrument of road closures to stop Rat running through Tower Hamlets, whereby this also affects all the Local Business and non cyclists. We Residents want the council to think smarter, use tech to stop Rat runners, Use existing techniques to charge "Out of towners" fees to use our roads, Encourage local Electric vehicle use by locals, Build more Electric vehicle infrastructure, all "Smarter" thinking ideas rather than forced st closures.
