Westminster Road Area Consultation and Survey Results
06/01/2010 - Westminster Road Area Consultation and Survey Results
RESOLVED: That the Executive Member for City Strategy agrees:
i) To implement a 20mph zone for the area.
ii) To note the outcome of the traffic surveys and questionnaire and take no further action at this time on introducing a point closure.
iii) That the results of the survey be also considered scheme.
iv)That the Police be requested to monitor the junctions in this area with a view to addressing any examples they may find of inappropriate driver behaviour.
REASON: As the lower speeds due to the traffic calming justify the introduction of a lower speed limit.
As the options of closing the area to through traffic does not have support from a significant proportion of the local community that would be affected by a closure.
As the options of investigating the use of chicanes and road narrowings are not well supported by local residents.
