Report by Deputy Director for Environment & Economy - Commercial & Delivery (CMDE4).

The Cabinet Member for Environment considered a report that set out objections to a formal consultation on proposals to introduce new parking restrictions on parts of Mallards Way, London Road and Talisman Road in Bicester.

David Tole indicated that there had been amendments to the original scheme to allow visitors to park in the evening.  Responding to questions he confirmed that the proposal had been supported by former Councillor Shouler as local councillor.

Responding to a question from Councillor John Sanders about the use of council community budget, Mark Kemp advised that although the scheme had closed there were a number of projects where money had been committed.

Having regard to the arguments and options set out in the documentation before him, the representations made to him and the further considerations set out above, the Cabinet Member for Environment confirmed his decision on this matter as follows:

to approve parking restrictions for parts of Mallards Way, London Road and Talisman Road (Bicester) as advertised but amended as set out in paragraph 8 of this report.
