'You shouldn't have to breathe someone else's pollution'

Dr Jordan White, a data scientist with air quality experts EarthSense, has looked at the current situation in Temple Street and given his view. 'Shutting it off is a really good idea,' he says, 'you shouldn't have to breathe somebody else's pollution.'

He was talking on Neil Pringle's Breakfast Show on BBC Radio Sussex on Thursday – earlier in the show two Temple Street residents, Amanda Baxter  and Karen Boyd, told listeners about the current Rat Run Effect and consequent high pollution levels in the road. You can hear them talking here

Dr Jordan is featured a little later and you can hear him here

And please remember the public meeting about shutting off The Rat Run of Temple Street – upstairs at The Temple Bar, on the corner of Temple Street and Western Road, at 6.30 on Monday 16th August to hear the views of residents and what the Council is prepared to do about the situation.
