Creation of a Traffic Regulation Order

Having considered the objections received and in particular the issues raised around equalities and diversity and the proposals, together with all the detailed issues including any proposed mitigating actions, the Cabinet Panel recommendation to proceed with the amended proposals and the creation of the Traffic Regulation Order was approved.

The Panel had considered the introduction of waiting restrictions and verge and footway prohibition in various roads, Birchwood, Hatfield.  It was noted that in November 2016, the Council delivered parking survey forms to all residents within the Birchwood area asking if they would like to see any changes to the parking restrictions, options included in the resident permit schemes and single/double yellow lines.  Birchwood was split into three areas with area three and Great North Road completed in 2018 and the focus was now on the remaining sections of the Birchwood consultation area.

The results of the informal and statutory consultation and the recommended course of action were considered noting that a total of 1647 residents and businesses had been consulted and seven objections received (Minute 139 refers).

RESOLVED:

That, having considered the objections received and in particular the issues raised around equalities and diversity and the proposals, together with all the detailed issues including any proposed mitigating actions, the Cabinet Panel recommendation to proceed with the amended proposals and the creation of the Traffic Regulation Order for all the reasons set out, be approved.
