Issue - meetings

To consider a report of the Corporate Director for Place Management and Regeneration

The report sets out the results of an investigation into traffic issues on the roads surrounding the redevelopment of Queens Road Primary School.. It is anticipated that there will be a change in traffic and vehicle movements and therefore key junctions and new school entrances need to be addressed to improve safety.

The Area Committee is requested to approve the statutory legal advertising of the Traffic Regulation Orders detailed in the report and, subject to no objections being received within the statutory period, the Order can be made.

(NOTE: The Chair was of the opinion that this item, although not included on the agenda for the meeting, should be considered as a matter of urgency in accordance with Section 100B(4)(b) of the Local Government Act 1972 as Oak Tree Primary School would be opening in September 2015).

A representative of the Corporate Director for Place Management and Regeneration submitted a report (copies of which had been circulated) regarding the results of an investigation into traffic issues on the roads surrounding the re-development of Queens Road Primary School to form the new Oak Tree Primary School. It was anticipated that there would be a change in traffic and vehicle movements and therefore key junctions and new school entrances would need to be addressed to improve safety.

RESOLVED – (1) That the Area Committee be minded to approve proposed Traffic Regulation Orders on various roads in the proximity of the Queens Road (Oak Tree) Primary School, Cheadle Hulme as set out in the schedule detailed in paragraph 4.2 of the report and shown on drawing number 4144/001 attached to the report, at an approximate cost of £2,450 to be funded by the developer as part of the approved planning application.

(2) That approval be given to the statutory legal advertising of the Traffic Regulation Orders and, subject to no objections being received within twenty one days from the advertisement date, the Orders be made.
