Report by Director for Community Operations (Interim) (CMDE10).

The report presents responses received to a statutory consultation to extend the village 30mph speed limit on the Claydon Road and Williamscot Road at Cropredy following a request by Cropredy Parish Council and, if approved, funded by them.

The Cabinet Member for Environment is RECOMMENDED to approve the proposed extension of the 30mph speed limit on the Claydon Road and Williamscot Road as advertised.

Approved

The Cabinet Member for Environment considered (CMDE10) responses received to a statutory consultation to extend the village 30mph speed limit on the Claydon Road and Williamscot Road at Cropredy following a request by Cropredy Parish Council and, if approved, funded by them.

Responding to a question from the Cabinet Member with regard to the objection by Thames Valley Police officers confirmed that both extensions were modest and, by including junctions and accesses currently just outside the current village speed limit, were coherent and appropriate and allowing some flexibility having regard to the specific circumstances in the area, which in respect of the Claydon Road included the busy junction with the Mollington Road and on Williamscot Road access to the village sports ground.  The proposals had been requested by the parish council who would be funding the proposals.

Having regard to the information set out in the report before her and the representations made to her at the meeting the Cabinet Member for Environment confirmed her decision as follows:

to approve the proposed extension of the 30mph speed limit on the Claydon Road and Williamscot Road as advertised.
