Agenda item

This report brings to Members attention requests for Traffic Regulation Orders, the results of investigations and seeks authority to advertise proposals where appropriate.

Advice of the Advisory Panel

That the Executive Member for City Strategy be advised to;

(i)            Approve the advertising of the Traffic Regulation Orders in line with option A in paragraph 6 of the report and Annexes B, C and D, with the following amendments:

1. That item 43 in Annex B, be advertised to extend the double yellow lines by 14m in a southerly direction.

2. That item 48 in Annex B, be amended so that the yellow lines be extended to the gateway, as illustrated on the plan circulated at the meeting. This was further amended at the meeting to extend the restrictions to the western boundary of No.1A Royal Chase.

3. That an item be added to Annex B ’50 St James Mount’ involving:

            The creation of 4 identified parking bays restricting parking to 2 hours between 9am and 5pm Monday to Friday, and the placing of double yellow lines ‘No waiting at any time’ on both sides of the remaining areas of the road, apart from the eastern section of the turning head, as that area provides direct garage access to properties 13-17.

            Details of this and a plan were circulated at the meeting.

4. That an item be added to Annex B ’51 St. Benedict Road’ involving:

            Introduction of 4m of double yellow lines as shown on the attached plan.

5. That an item be added to Annex B ’52 Old Moor Lane’ involving:

Extending the restrictions as shown on the plan.

Details of this and a plan were circulated at the meeting.

6. That item 35 in Annex B be approved, but Officers to investigate if any additional residents parking bays can be provided at the bottom end of the street and be given delegated authority to advertise the proposals.

7. That Item E at Annex C be abandoned.

8. That residents be consulted in due course on their views for a one way traffic system scheme involving Milner Street, Gladstone Street, Beaconsfield Street and School Street.

(ii)            Approve the implementation of any proposals where no objections are received. Items where an objection is made will be reported back to a subsequent meeting of this Panel for a decision on how to proceed.

Decision of the Executive Member

RESOLVED:That the advice of the Advisory Panel be accepted and endorsed.

REASON:      (i)         To minimise the Traffic Regulation Order advertising

costs.

(ii)            To minimise the time taken to implement the proposals.

This report brought to Members attention requests for Traffic Regulation Orders, the results of investigations and sought authority to advertise proposals where appropriate. Members were presented with the following Options:

Option A:      Approve the formal advertising of the Traffic Regulation Orders as proposed for some or all of the sites in Annexes B, C and D.

Option B:      Defer individual items for consideration at a later date if additional information is required.

Officers reported that under new Officer delegations, the list of orders next due to committee would be considerably shorter.

Members discussed and amended the Traffic Regulation Orders to be advertised, as listed below. Members queried if the number of enforcement staff would increase in line with the increase in no waiting restrictions. Officers reported that this was unlikely.
