Decision

Following a site audit and assessment and the
completion of vehicle classification surveys, the implementation of
a new weight restriction is not considered an appropriate course of
action. It is felt that the impact would be very limited due to the
low amount of HGVs currently using the road as a through route.
Additionally, “Unsuitable for HGVs” signage should be
installed to discourage larger vehicles from using the route unless
accessing local properties or businesses. These will have a similar
impact to a TRO without incurring the same financial
costs.
