DECISION
MADE
 
I approve that:
 
(i)             The proposals be implemented as
advertised.
 
(ii)            The objectors be advised
accordingly.
 

This decision was published on 6 August 2025 and will come into
force on 14 August 2025.
 

Reasons for the decision

There have been no objections to the
proposals in Amesbury. Implementing the waiting restrictions would
support the aim of the proposed restrictions to deter long term
parking by large vehicles on the Solstice Park industrial estate in
Amesbury.
 
There have been no objections to the
proposals in Figheldean. These proposals ensure visibility to
junctions remains unrestricted by parked vehicles.
 
There have been no objections to the
proposal in Middle Woodford. The relocation of on street parking
from the car parking entrance to Woodford Valley C of E Primary
Academy in Middle Woodford will help address the issues of
congestion on the C42 and improve safety at school start and finish
times.
 
Whilst there have been objections to the
proposals in Durrington. These proposals ensure visibility to
junctions remains unrestricted by parked vehicles and assist with
enforcing the requirements of the Highway Code which prohibit
parking within 10m of a junction.
 
The proposals are in accordance with
priorities 2 and 3 in Wiltshire Council’s Business Plan
2022-2032.
 
The proposals have the support of the
locally elected members, Stonehenge Local Highway Footway
Improvement Group (LHFIG) and Area Board.
