Purpose

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

Decision

 
1. 
That it be approved that the extension of Controlled
Parking Zone (“CPZ”) ‘B’ into the following
roads: Sturdy Road, Ellery Street, Old James Street, Whorlton Road and partially into Scylla 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. The remaining roads
consulted as part of this consultation will not be part of a
controlled parking zone. 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, the revised extension,
which significantly reduces the size of the proposed CPZ coverage,
responds to the feedback
of the majority of residents.  Full
details can be found in Appendix A as
well as the boundary of the proposed CPZ extension.
 
2. 
That it be noted that the
operational hours of the proposed CPZ extension will be in line
with the existing zone: Mon-Sat 8.30am to 6.30pm.
 
3. 
That it be noted that a further
report will be brought to the Cabinet Member should there be any
valid statutory objections to the traffic order required to
implement the proposed CPZ extension.
 
4. 
That it be approved that the position and type of parking bays and
restrictions for the proposed CPZ extension as
shown in the outline design
save for any amendments which may be required at the implementation
stage, 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.
