Business

ItemBusiness
250The Cabinet Committee received a report of the Corporate Director for Place that appraised Members of the representations that had been received in response to the statutory consultation for traffic regulation orders for proposed waiting locations within the Borough.

The report also sought the Cabinet Committee's approval on the way forward for each of the locations on the basis of the recommendations of the Traffic & Parking Working Party following consideration of all the representations that had been received in writing and at the meeting.

Whilst the views of the Traffic & Parking Working Party in respect of the proposals for Daines Close were noted, the Cabinet Committee felt that a consistent approach to these types of Close in this vicinity should be adopted. The Cabinet Committee therefore concluded that the proposed traffic regulation order for Daines Close should not be confirmed.

As a result of the discussion regarding the proposed traffic regulation order relating to Cleveland Drive, the Chairman undertook to speak to Head Teacher of Southend High School for Boys and the Southend Hospital NHS Trust about the parking issues in this area.
