The Cabinet considered a report of the Executive Director (Neighbourhoods and Environment) concerning the adoption of a new Domestic Vehicle Crossing Policy.

Resolved:-

1. That the new policy for Domestic Vehicle Crossings appended to the submitted report, be adopted.

2. That it be noted that new enforcement activity will begin once the establishment of the new Highway Enforcement Team is completed.

3. That it be noted that this policy will be utilised by the Traffic Regulations Working Party in its considerations of appeals to rejected applications, as set out in the Council’s Constitution.

Reason for Decision:

This policy will ensure the Council acts properly in its consideration of applications, and provide a clear, robust set of criteria for potential applicants to consider before submitting an application which will likely require early investment in design and consents.

Other Options:

To decide on an alternative approach, or to do nothing.
