The Cabinet Committee received a report of the Deputy Chief Executive (Place) that appraised Members of the representations that had been received in response to the statutory consultation for proposed Traffic Regulation Orders for the introduction of permit parking controls and the amendment of waiting restrictions in various roads bounded North Road, West Road and London Road.

The report sought the Cabinet Committee's approval on the way forward in respect of all of these proposals, after having considered the views of the Traffic Regulations Working Party following consideration of all the representations that had been received in writing and at the meeting. Large scale plans of the proposals and photographs of the streets were displayed at the meeting.

Resolved:

That in respect of The Southend-on-Sea Borough Council (North Road Area Parking Management Scheme) (Zone NR) (Waiting Restrictions, & Permit Parking Zone) Order 2018:

(i)  no further action be taken in respect of the permit parking controls and that these be deleted from the traffic regulation order; and

(ii)  consideration of the amendments to the traffic regulation orders in relation to the alternate waiting restrictions in Albion Road, Windsor Road and Osborne Road be deferred to the next meeting of the Traffic Regulations Working Party and Cabinet Committee.

Reason for Decision

As set out in the submitted report

Other Options

Each proposal needs to be considered on its individual merits and their impact on public safety, traffic flows or parking and wider impact on the surrounding network. Members may consider taking no further action if they feel it is appropriate.
