The 'crystal roof' website I quoted from uses the same data (metropolitan police statistics). It suggests that it's trends are for the postcode. I just caveated it a little because I'm not sure that you can say too much about such a small area (as over numbers are so small that a couple of crimes can skew things). But all in all, there is nothing in any of the available data or research (imperfect as that will always be) to back up the claim (completely unevidenced) that the Local LTN has increased crime (unless I've missed it, not read through the whole thread). I'm not talking about narratives. I'm talking about available data. Some general, some more specific. -
Just a quick recommendation for Robert Mills - If you want a bang on time, friendly, clear, technically up to date and clean professional, please choose Robert Mills. Reliable and helpful consistently. -

In response to Earl: Yes but we are not speaking generally and some of us are not using general trends to justify our view on the specific. It seems there are conflicting narratives about an alleged upturn in crime on the roads under discussion. It would be useful to get more specific information about reported crimes on these specific roads. I am assuming a spate of vehicle thefts would at least be reported for insurance purposes. -
Crime has generally been reducing in London irrespective of LTNs. the metropolitan police crime map lets you look at data from particular postcodes and particular crimes.
