Purpose

It is proposed to make a Traffic Regulation
Order for the reasons as set out in Appendix 'C', which include
measures to address the following:
• Safety concerns in relation to both vehicles that are parked
causing serious problems with regards to the safe movement of
traffic and parking that obstructs driver's sightlines, impeding
access and egress at junctions and access to some businesses. These
measures will improve visibility at the locations and assist with
the general movement of traffic along the roads.
• Some of the measures are proposed to ensure access for
refuse vehicles and residential properties.
• Some of the measures are proposed to allow buses to safely
pull in and out without blocking the road and for Heavy Goods
Vehicles to manoeuvre in a safe manner with minimal obstruction by
parked vehicles.
• The order further removes restrictions that are no longer
required to provide additional unrestricted parking availability
for local residents and businesses improving the amenities of the
area
• The proposal also formalises restrictions that are currently
on site and corrects inconsistencies that have been identified
within current Orders. These proposals will not make any changes to
the restrictions or their extents on site, therefore drivers will
not be subject to any changes as a result of these proposals

Consultations
Formal consultation was carried out between 01 October-2025 until
29 November-2025 which included advertising in the local press and
notices being displayed on site. Divisional county councillors were
consulted along with the council's usual consultees and the
consultation documents posted on the council's website.
Consultation should have been from 01 October-2025 until 29
October-2025. However, there was an administration error stating
the above date in the documents provided to the public so we put it
on hold for a decision to be made.

Following formal consultation No Objections were received.
