8 Objections to the Proposed Prohibition of Waiting - Otmoor Way, Royton pdf icon PDF 2 MB

To consider one objection to the current proposal to introduce a Prohibition of Waiting Order on Otmoor Way, Royton in the form of double yellow lines

Minutes:

Consideration was given to a report regarding objections received to the introduction of double yellow lines on Otmoor Way, Royton.

 

Correspondence was received from residents of Otmoor Way via their Local Ward Member regarding obstructive parking from within the junction. Observations revealed that a small number of residents did park in this location and in addition, parents/carer picking up and dropping off children from St. Joseph’s Primary and Newbank Day Nursery.

 

The proposal had been approved under delegated powers on 28th November 2018 and subsequently advertised. One letter of objection had been received. The basis of the objection was due to the proposal covering the majority of the objector’s driveway.

 

In light of the objections, there was no reason why the proposed length of waiting restrictions could not be reduced outside of the objector’s property. However should the resident find obstructive parking, their only option would be to apply for an Access Protection Marking self-funded.

 

Options Considered.

Option 1: To introduce a No Waiting at Any Time Traffic Regulation Order as originally proposed.

Option 2: Rescind the proposed Traffic Regulation Orders.

Option 3: to introduce, the amended proposals discussed in paragraphs 2.2 and 2.3 and 2.4.

 

RESOLVED that, notwithstanding the objections received, the double yellow lines be introduced as amended to reflect Highway Officers preferred option.
