Report by Head of Transport (TDC12)

The Committee considered (TDC12) responses to a formal consultation on proposed waiting restrictions along Coopers Lane, Abingdon.

David Bloxham spoke in support of the restrictions and referred to safety concerns and access problems, particularly for large service vehicles,  which resulted from commuter parking.  He suggested a reduced time for waiting and called for vigorous monitoring and enforcement.

Councillor Hudspeth suggested that Abingdon Town Council be asked to support improved enforcement as part of the joint funding arrangement for PTSOs.

RESOLVED:

(a)       to approve the making the of the Oxfordshire County Council (Abingdon)(One-Way Traffic and Prohibition of Waiting)(Amendment No 11)Oder 20** as advertised;

(b)       authorise the necessary works to implement the proposals.
