Here we go again!
Some households in Isleworth have received letters from Hounslow regarding road closures to through traffic, and access only in some streets. Of course this will force even more traffic on to the already rammed Twickenham Rd. and have a far wider domino effect across the area right up to the borough border with Richmond at the A316. This is going to be 'enforced' with CCTV? Quite how that works who knows? Apparently this is all part of the government's response to the Covid pandemic. How Hounslow council imagine this will only affect a few streets is stupid in the extreme, and to only notify a relatively few people of this is disingenuous to say the least. It seems nothing has been learned from the disastrous Church St. debacle, we can only hope every Hounslow councillor will now ride a bike, or walk everywhere as a glowing example to us all. The one place I wouldn't try walking would be along Twickenham Rd. - not because of Covid but the carbon monoxide fumes will get you firstThe same government who cannot make its mind up about wearing masks in public places says this is 'statutory guidance' - go figure.
