Purpose

The Council has been contacted
by residents to address issues of road safety and obstructive
parking on Derbyshire Lane at its junction with the A56 Chester
Road, Stretford. Vehicles parking on both sides of the road and
footway, often blocking pedestrian access. The parking also creates
a bottleneck and damage is often caused to parked
vehicles.
 
It is therefore proposed to
introduce a length of ‘No Waiting Mon-Sat
8am–6pm’ restriction on the north side of Derbyshire
Lane to deter parking, to improve pedestrian access and visibility
and road safety for all road users. The short length of existing
‘No Waiting At Any Time and No
Loading Mon-Sat 7.30am-9.30am
and 4pm-6.30pm’ restrictions that are missing from the
southwest corner of the junction are to be reinstated.
 
The proposals, as shown on
drawing E9207-001 were formally advertised on 16 November 2022 and
received 1 objection. Having considered the objection received,
approval is sought to introduce the restrictions as advertised, in
accordance with drawing E9207-001.

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 and detailed in the schedule
contained within the report, and as shown on drawing number
E9207-001.
 
3)        
That the objectors be informed of the decision
made.
