Purpose

Consider the consultation
results and make a decision whether to proceed to statutory
consultation

Decision

 
1. 
That it be
approved that the implementation of a new controlled parking
zone (“CPZ”) in Queen’s Road, covering a smaller
area than proposed in public consultation, in response to resident
feedback. This proposal is subject to the outcome of any necessary
statutory procedures. Roads to be excluded that were included in
the informal consultation with residents, are Asylum Road, Culmore Road, Clifton Way, Station Passage and
Lugard Road.  The majority of residents living on the roads that
are included in the new smaller zone were supportive of a CPZ on
their road (53%).  Otherwise given the
overall majority who didn’t want a
CPZ, their wishes, in revising the broader proposal, are being
supported. Full details can be found in
Appendix A as can the boundary of the proposed zone.
 
2. 
That the operational hours of
the proposed CPZ is Monday to Friday, 1pm to 3pm as per the request
of the majority of respondents be noted.
 
3. 
That it be noted that a further report will be brought to
the Strategic Director of Environment, Neighbourhoods, and Growth should there be any
valid statutory objections to the traffic order required to
implement the new CPZ. 
 
4. 
That it be approved that the
position and type of parking bays and restrictions for the proposed
CPZ and surrounding streets as shown in the outline design save for
any amendments which may be required at the implementation stage,
and which may be determined by officers (Appendix B).
 
5. 
That it be noted that in addition to the controlled parking
zone proposed as part of this report, officers will assess and
propose double yellow line waiting restrictions across the entire
consulted area where required for safety reasons.
