Parking Review 2025

From: Executive Cabinet - Wednesday, 23rd April, 2025 1.00 pm - April 23, 2025

Tameside Council commenced a parking review in December 2024.  Subject to agreement of the recommendations in this report, planning work would commence with an aim to implement new arrangements from June 2025.   The report brought together all the evidence gathered through the review and made a series of recommendations for a new parking offer to be implemented from June 2025, plus actions for the ongoing monitoring and evaluation of the parking service.  In addition, the report includes recommendations on future opportunities for parking to be explored in the medium and long-term.   An interim report was discussed at Executive Cabinet in January 2025 and provided part of the overall evidence base for the final recommendations outlined.

TRAFFIC REGULATION ORDER TO IMPLEMENT A WEIGHT RESTRICTION ON WEAK BRIDGES IN TAMESIDE

From: Executive Cabinet - Wednesday, 23rd April, 2025 1.00 pm - April 23, 2025

The following Network Rail bridges were assessed under the national Bridgeguard 3 programme conducted around 2006.  Network Rail requested that the structures be weight restricted as a result of the assessment calculations.  Temporary weight restrictions were imposed at the time, but these now need to be made permanent. ·       Stamford Road, Audenshaw (southern side) ·       Lodge Lane, Hyde ·       Cranbourne Road, Ashton ·       Spring Bank Lane, Stalybridge   Grove Road / Spring Bank Lane, Stalybridge (river bridge).  Following a recent assessment, the load carrying capacity of this council owned bridge has reduced.  Consequently, a new weight restriction was required for this bridge also.   As the bridges that were still known to be weak are not scheduled to be replaced or repaired, to full weight bearing capacity in the near future, they were in need of control.   It was intended to introduce a permanent legal order to limit the size of vehicles that can traverse the bridges and ensure the signage, in terms of design and illumination, was in line with current permanent legislation.    

Recommendations Approved
