Prior to the consideration of this item, the Council’s Head of Traffic Management & Highways Network gave a brief training session/overview on traffic regulation orders.

The Cabinet Committee received a report of the Executive Director (Neighbourhoods and Environment) that presented the locations where additional waiting restrictions were required to manage and maintain access at various junctions throughout the Borough. The objective of the restrictions was to improve access and safety by improving visibility at junctions.

The Cabinet Committee noted that a further tranche of proposed junction protection restrictions would be submitted to a future meeting of the Traffic Regulations Working Party and Cabinet Committee for consideration.

2.  That, in the event formal objections are received following statutory consultation, any unresolved objections be submitted to the Traffic Regulations Working Party and Cabinet Committee for consideration.
