A representative of the Director of Place Management submitted a report (copies of which had been circulated) detailing the findings of a consultation exercise and seeking approval for the introduction of a Traffic Regulation Order (No Waiting Mon – Fri 8.00am – 9.30am & 2.00pm – 3.30pm (Single Yellow Line)) on the Fairway and Dovedale Road, Offerton.

The following comments were made/ issues raised:-

·         Members expressed concern about the traffic regulation orders applying year-round and requested further consideration be given to applying the orders in term-time only, given that parking was problematic during term-time only.

·         The restrictions were likely to be onerous on residents should they be applied year-round.

·         Officers were requested to provide ward members with further detail on the extent and timing of the proposed Traffic Regulation Order and enforcement.

RESOLVED – That consideration of this item be deferred pending further detail being provided to the ward councillors relating to the extent and timing of the proposed Traffic Regulation Order and enforcement.
