Issue - meetings

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

The report details a proposal to introduce ‘No Waiting at Any Time’ (double yellow lines), to the west side of George Lane from the entrance to the sorting office, north past the access to the unadopted Millstone Close.  Some limited waiting to either side of the sorting office exit is also proposed to facilitate the collection of parcels by members of the public and, allow a changeover of vehicles, thus enabling staff to store their personal vehicles in the sorting office car park.  Additional road markings are also proposed, to draw attention to the presence of Hardman Avenue and the domestic access.

The proposals have been brought forward following concerns in relation to problems caused by long-term parking on George Lane, in the vicinity of the sorting office.

The Area Committee is requested to recommend that the Executive Councillor (Communities and Housing) gives approves the legal advertising of the following Traffic Regulation Order, and subject to no objections being received within 21 days from the advertisement date, the subsequent making of the order at a cost of £1,500 to be funded from the Strategic Budget:-
