Issue - decisions

The Cabinet Member AGREES that the proposals be implemented, modified or withdrawn as below:

1.1  Restrictions as detailed on plan B4 and C4.

  Roads affected: Lansdown Lane, Brookfield Park

  Restriction: Proposed No Waiting At Any Time markings

Recommendation: That the proposals are implemented as the Council received only 1 objection to the implementation of these restrictions, at the junction of Lansdown Lane and Brookfield Park.  These restrictions have been requested by the local Councillors, Colin Barret and Malcom Lees, as parking on the entrance to this road means that people turning in would face on-coming traffic. It is therefore recommended that these proposed No Waiting At Any Time markings are implemented.

1.2  Restrictions as detailed on plan B8.

Roads affected: Partis Way, Apsley Close and Apsley Road

Restriction: Proposed No Waiting At Any Time markings

Recommendation: That the proposals are implemented as the Council received only 1 objection; these restrictions were agreed with local Councillors and are being proposed to improve accessibility for emergency and refuse vehicles by preventing vehicles from parking on corners and in turning heads.

1.3  Restrictions as detailed on plan H7.

Roads affected: Bennetts Lane and Snow Hill.

Restriction: Proposed No Waiting At Any Time markings

Recommendation: That the proposals are implemented as the Council received 2 comments of support, 4 of support in part and 2 objections. As these proposals have been agreed by local Councillors, during a walk about, to aid accessibility and for refuse and emergency vehicles it is recommended that these proposals are implemented.

1.4  Restrictions as detailed on plan C9.

Roads affected: Kennington Road

Restriction: Proposed removal of Motorcycle Bay

Recommendation: That the proposals are implemented as the Council received no objections and on-street parking stock is in high demand.

1.5  Restrictions as detailed on plan D7.

Roads affected: Cedric Road

Restriction: Proposed removal of Resident Parking bay and replacement with No Waiting At Any Time markings.

Recommendation: That the proposals are withdrawn as cannot see any reason why such restrictions should be required in this location and there is clearly considerable resident opposition.

1.6  Restrictions as detailed on plan D8.

Roads affected: Cedric Road and Audley Park Road.

Restriction: Proposed removal of Resident Parking bay and replacement with No Waiting At Any Time markings on Cedric Road and proposed No Waiting At Any Time markings on Audley Park Road.

Recommendation: That the proposals on Audley Park Road are Implemented. The Council received 3 objections and 2 comments of support to these recommendations. As these proposed No Waiting At Any Time markings are replacing existing advisory White Keep Clear markings, which are an informal parking restriction to aid accessibility, it is recommended that these markings are upgraded to No Waiting At Any Time markings as the informal method is not being adhered to by drivers. The local Councillors have also agreed to these proposals through the informal consultation process. It is recommended that the proposed removal of the Resident Parking bay on Cedric Road is withdrawn, please refer to recommendations set out in 1.5.
