Purpose

The aim is to introduce a number of parking restrictions around Winslow, in anticipation of the new Winslow railway station.

Decision

The Leader approves the implementation of the advertised Traffic Regulation Order, with the exception of the proposals for residential parking permits and limited waiting in the following locations:

Location

Notes

Buckingham Road

in front of properties 12 to 34

Courthouse Close

whole of road

High Street

Between properties 128 and 170

Highfield Road

whole of road

Park Road

whole of road

Piccadilly

whole of road

Station Road

Between Buckingham Road and Claremont Close (both sides)

The locations detailed in the table above have been excluded due to insufficient support received during the consultation process. All other parking restrictions are recommended to proceed as planned.

In order to encourage use of the car park from outset once opened, the recommendation is to reduce the actual charge for the “up to 9 hours” tariff from £6.10 to £3.50 and the “over 9 hours” tariff to be reduced from £8.10 to £4.50 in the next notice of variation early 2026, prior to the car park opening for public use. The reduction in the parking charges will seek to promote use of the car park from the opening of the new railway station and charging arrangements will be kept under review as usage and demand for the station becomes established.
