Issue - meetings

The Panel considered an objection which had been received to a decision on the introduction of a No Stopping on Entrance Markings restriction at The Lows, Oldham which was approved under delegated powers on 10 July 2023. One objection was received from a resident of The Lows that the proposed restrictions would displace parking to the opposite side of the road outside the residents properties, therefore making it more difficult for residents to park and potentially causing issues with parents using the nearby school blocking their driveways. The resident had been invited to apply for an Access Protection Marking which would deter obstructive parking across their driveway. The restrictions would only operational during the daytime and working week, which would lessen any impact on residents.

Options considered:

Option 1 - Introduce the proposed restrictions as advertised.

Option 2 - Do not introduce the proposed restrictions.

RESOLVED that the objection be dismissed, and the proposal introduced as advertised in accordance with the schedule and plan in the original report.
