I approvethat the proposals be implemented as advertised.

The introduction of “No Waiting at any time” at the locations shown will ensure that larger refuse vehicles and emergency vehicles will have access at all times. The introduction of a 20 mph speed limit zone will deter speeding and promote road safety.
