Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: Yes
To:
(i) Consider the comments received following the formal advertisement of the proposed prohibition of driving bus gate Traffic Regulation Order on Newman Road, Devizes.
(ii) Recommend the making of the Traffic Regulation Order (TRO hereafter).
I approve that:
(i) The proposal be implemented as advertised.
(ii) The commentators be informed accordingly.
This decision was published on 23 October 2019 and will come into force on 31 October 2019.
This amendment to the original Prohibition of Driving Order implemented in 2016 is being promoted to change the enforcement of the bus gate from automatic rising bollards to a camera enforcement system. This will alleviate the issues experienced with water damage to the bollards currently in situ and the ongoing maintenance liability. The proposals will also be in accordance with both Priority 2 and Priority 4 of the Council’s Business Plan.
To:
(i) Implement the proposed prohibition of driving bus gate TRO as advertised.
(ii) Amend the proposals in consideration of the comments received.
(iii) Abandon the proposals.
