Traffic levels are increasing

Cornwall Council has failed to maintain the lower levels of traffic, and noise pollution that we had during the lockdown.

The council could have done more and can in future do more to encourage cycling in the Truro area, some cycle lanes on Trafalgar Avenue and Morlaix Avenue, as well as St. Clements Street and St. Austell Street would be helpful.

Cornwall Council has also failed to develop a distinctive devolved policy to respond to the coronavirus, in constrast to the other devolved nations of Scotland and Wales. Cornwall Council needs to in future stand up to central government and deliver real devolution for Cornwall, not follow it blindly.
