Decision details

1.            To consider the consultation responses received in regards to the proposed Prohibition of Driving Order on part of Cemetery Lane, Bradford on Avon.

I approvethat the proposals be implemented as advertised.

This decision was published on 5 April 2018 and will come into force on  13 April 2018.          

The Prohibition of Driving Order on part of Cemetery Lane will remove potential conflict between motorised vehicles and pedestrians in an area of new development where conflict between drivers and non-motorised users would otherwise likely increase.

The Order would fulfil the desire of a significant number of local residents, in particular at Woolley Terrace, to improve local conditions.

To:

(i)            Implement the proposals as advertised.

(ii)           Not implement the proposals.

(iii)          Implement the proposals with amendments

Consultations have been undertaken with the Fire Service, Police and Ambulance Service and also with the relevant bus companies, the Town Council and the Local Member.  Advertisements have been posted in the local press and notices were posted in prominent positions at the site (see Appendix 1).
