Report by Director of Infrastructure Delivery (CMDE10).
Due to development on the east side of the A4074 Sandford-on-Thames
bypass, it is proposed to extend the 50mph speed limit to include a new
signalled junction. It is also proposed to prohibit the making of U turns on
both the A4074 approaches to this junction. If approved, the full costs of the
scheme would be met by the developers. The
report presents responses received in the course of a statutory consultation for
the introduction of the proposals.
The
Cabinet Member for Environment is RECOMMENDED to approve the proposals as
advertised.

Minutes:
The Cabinet Member for Environment considered
CMDE10 responses received in the course of a statutory consultation to
extend a 50mph speed limit on the A4074
Sandford-on-Thames bypass to include a new signalled
junction. The proposal has been promoted due to development on the east side of
the bypass. The proposal also prohibits the making of U turns on both the A4074
approaches to the junction. The full costs of the scheme will be met by the
developers.
Mr Kirkwood confirmed that the prohibition of
u turns near roundabouts although not a requirement was standard practice and
that the concerns expressed by the parish council had been met.
Having regard to the arguments and options
set out in the report and the representation made to her at the meeting the
Cabinet Member for Environment confirmed her decision as follows:
to approve the proposals as advertised.
