Decision details

To seek approval to include the extent of existing time-limited parking on the east side of the High Street south of the junction with Bell Lane in the ETRO and to trial the operation of the new time-limited arrangements.  

41.1     The Lead Member considered a report by the Director of Communities, Economy and Transport.

DECISIONS

41.2     The Lead Member RESOLVED to approve the inclusion of 3 on-street time-limited parking spaces, on the eastern side of the High Street south of Bell Lane, into the trial of the new parking controls in the High Street by way of an Experimental Traffic Regulation Order.

Reasons

41.3     The 23 on-street time-limited parking spaces associated with Stage 2 of the High Street improvements have a waiting period of 30 minutes, for which the Lead Member has approved the trial of the new parking controls by way of  an Experimental Traffic Regulation Order. The 3 on-street time-limited parking spaces on the eastern side of the High Street south of Bell Lane associated with Stage 1 of the High Street improvements have a waiting period of 60 minutes. If these spaces are not included in the trial it will be confusing to drivers as there will be two different waiting periods in close proximity of one another.
