Purpose

A
planning application was approved in June 2024 (ref 112978/FUL/24)
for the demolition of the existing church and erection of 2 no.
detached dwellings, demolition of parts of the Church Hall and
conversion to 3 no. dwellings with associated parking, access and
landscaping. Retention of the existing dwelling, internal access
and infrastructure.
 
The
new development fronts onto Montague Road opposite Stamford Place
which have existing waiting restrictions. In
order to integrate the new development into the surrounding
roads and maintain road safety it is proposed to introduce No
Waiting At Any Time restrictions along Montague Road and extend the
one way on Montague Road from Marlborough Road to Stamford
Place.
 
The
formal consultation took place on 6th June 2025, and 1
objection was received. The main reason for the objection was that
extending the one way will restrict access to the high street and
easing congestion.
 
Having considered the objections received, approval is sought to
introduce the scheme as shown on drawing number CO00201698-TRO-01
Rev A and in the schedule within this
report.  
 

Decision

1)   
That the results of the consultation and objections
received be noted.
 
2)   
That, following careful consideration of the
objections and comments received, authorisation be given to make
and implement the order as advertised, as shown on drawing number
CO00201698-TRO-01 Rev A, and as detailed in the schedule contained
within the report.

 
3)   
That the objectors be informed of the decision
made.

Reasons for the decision

To
enable the necessary parking restrictions and a one way to be
introduced and enforced, to enhance resident amenity, in the
interests of highway safety and to discourage obstruction of the
highway. 
 

Alternative options considered

Leaving out the proposed restrictions to which objections have
been raised would be detrimental to resident amenity, highway
safety and would also lead to obstruction for other road
users.
