To consider objections received to proposed
waiting restrictions at Knott Lanes, Oldham.
Minutes:
Consideration was given to a report which recommended the introduction of prohibition of waiting restrictions on Knotts Lanes, Oldham which had been approved under delegated powers on 20th May 2024. The proposals were subsequently advertised, and fifteen objections and two supporting letters had been received.
The basis of all but one of the objections related to the section of proposed restrictions fronting properties 56 to 78 Knott Lanes, stating the proposed restrictions in this location would result in some resident and visitors having no convenient place to park, which would then displace parking into other areas, thus creating further problems. Objectors also raised concerns over some of the proposed restrictions around the Crime Lane Junction.
Options considered:
Option 1 – Introduce the proposed restrictions as advertised.
Option 2 –.Relax the proposal in accordance with the plan and schedule in Appendix C of the report.
Option 3 - Do not introduce the proposed restrictions
RESOLVED that the Deputy Chief Executive be recommended to introduce the amended restrictions in accordance with the plan and schedule in Appendix C of the report.
