"When the LTN was first introduced, there was a period where a group of people tried to sabotage it. There were solid bollards there but they were broken off and smashed up. Cones kept getting put up and bollards replaced but then they are taken away.
Discussing Wednesday's protest, the 75-year-old resident who was present at it, added: "There were several old people standing in the road just talking - that area has become a bit of a village pump - they told a driver he couldn't go through and he started filming them. "Strangely enough, my daughter messaged me from Bethnal Green to tell me that it had all kicked off outside my house - social media travels fast. A lot of people say 'I own a car, I pay my road taxes, I can go where I want on roads,' but it's illegal apart from emergency vehicles.
