Decision details

To consider the comments received following the formal advertisement of the introduction of an on street residents parking scheme in part of Victoria Road, Devizes and to recommend an appropriate way forward.

            I approvethat:

(i)            The proposals be implemented as advertised with an amendment in the St Mary’s Alms Houses area.

(ii)          Commercial Road be subject to monitoring with a view to introducing a future residents’ parking scheme should the need become apparent.

(iii)         The correspondents be informed accordingly.

This decision was published on 3 July 2017 and will come into force on 11 July 2017

The amendments at St Mary’s Alms Houses proposed to the Council’s advertised proposals serve to directly address concerns raised by correspondents in accordance with Outcome 2 of the Council’s Business Plan.

The proposed amendments will not be to the detriment of the main aim of the Council’s proposal to introduce residents’ parking to the Western end of Victoria Road which is seeking to maximise the number of parking spaces available for use by residents.

To:

(i)            Implement the advertised changes.

(ii)          Implement the advertised changes with amendments

(iii)         Abandon the proposals and retain the existing restriction.

The proposals have been consulted upon through the Traffic Regulation Order process.
