Decision details

Single Member Decision to proceed to implementation on the Queen Charlton Lane pilot intervention as part of the Liveable Neighbourhoods programme.

(1)  To note the high levels of support identified in the public engagement held during August 2022.

(2)  To proceed with the implementation of a pilot through traffic restriction on Queen Charlton Lane, as set out in the Experimental Traffic Regulation Order (ETRO) Notice of Making in Appendix A of the report.

(3)  To note the intention to proceed with the implementation as soon as a decision is made, and as such the potential interface with the Christmas embargo period.

To enable the project to maintain its current timetable and deliver maximum benefit and value to the community as soon as possible.

A one-way along Queen Charlton Lane with a raised shared use footpath was also considered and dismissed for the following reasons:

·  The lane would continue to be used as a through route.

·  Speeding is likely to remain a problem.

·  The cost would be substantial compared with the proposed modal filter.

·  It would take far longer to implement than the proposed modal filter.
