    I don’t disagree, but I think there you can trip them up with saying that you are making the majority of streets more quiet and family friendly keeping those horrible people from that other neighbourhood from speeding through our streets etc etc. Push the right buttons and you can play nimbys like a fiddle.

      Yep, good point. And it helps that it’s actually true, with through streets, as the name suggests, being used by people passing through the community, and not actually living there.
