The Highway Regulation Committee considered a
report regarding the objection received to the proposed
introduction of traffic calming measures on Pretoria Road,
Hollinwood. A report recommending the introduction of traffic
calming measures was approved under delegated powers on 12 March
2024. The proposal was subsequently advertised, and one objection
was received. A copy of the approved report was attached at
Appendix A and a copy of the objection was attached in Appendix B.
In summary, the objector stated that he will not be able to park
his vehicle outside his property if the speed cushions were
installed at the proposed location.
Officers did not accept this objection as there were no proposals
to introduce a parking restriction as part of this traffic calming
scheme. The objector may park on the speed cushion if
required.
RESOLVED - That:
in accordance with the recommendation of the Highways Regulation
Committee of 26 September 2024, that the objection be dismissed and
the proposed measures associated with the traffic calming scheme be
introduced as detailed in the drawing and schedule in the original
report approved under delegated powers on 12 March 2024.
Option 1 - Install traffic calming scheme as
advertised
Option 2 - Do Nothing
The Highways Regulation Committee recommend
that the proposal (Option 1) be introduced as advertised.
