implementation of a permanent Prohibition of Driving on Crime Lane
to prevent extensive fly tipping.
Content
RESOLVED - That:
the Council implements a gated Prohibition of Motor Vehicles
Traffic Regulation Order on both ends of Crime Lane, to stop the
fly tipping problem. The scheme will introduce an electronically
operated gate at the junction with Knott Lanes, that will be
operated by means of an app, key fob and/or pin code number.
At the Stannybrook Road end of the lane, it is proposed that access
to the lane is prevented by use of concrete barriers, which will
need to be spaced to allow access for pedestrians and equestrians.
The barriers would be located to maintain the private access to the
field.
