A representative of the Director of Place Management submitted a report (copies of which had been circulated) detailing the results of a recent monitoring exercise carried out on site following the completion of the Bramhall Park to A6 MCF Scheme.

The following comments were made/ issues raised:-

·         Welcomed the report and protections on Macclesfield Road.

·         It was queried whether it was necessary for the line markings to stretch 27 metres from the junction as there were some concerns in relation to residential parking.

·         It was noted that a number of signs had been removed as a result of the work and had not yet been replaced including school, neighbourhood watch and no vehicles overnight signs.

·         It was reported that residents were using the pavement after the shared space ends and it was queried whether a sign could be erected to provide clarity.

·         In relation to the roundabout at the junction of Dorchester and Jackson's Lane, it was queried whether the traffic island could be reviewed as part of the scheme.

RESOLVED – That the Cabinet Member for Economy & Regeneration be recommended to give approval to the implementation of the proposed measures and the legal advertising of the Traffic Regulation Orders contained in Appendix B to the report, and subject to the receipt of no objections within 21 days, the subsequent making of the orders.
