Decision details

The Chair introduced the item to the meeting.

The Chair stated that the County Council had been approached by West Oxfordshire District Council to create some spaces for market traders on Wednesdays for market day.

Officers confirmed there was existing signage but not with regulatory powers, which hampered the ability to enforce these measures.

Following a question from the Chair regarding the provision of disabled bays, officers stated there were no disabled bays being changed within the scope of this scheme.

Officers confirmed that the permits were for 24 hour use on Wednesdays.

The Chair thanked officers and agreed to the recommendations in the report.

RESOLVED to:

a)    Approve the introduction of ‘No Waiting at Any Time’ restrictions on sections of Market Place, and

b)    Approve a change to the current 2-hour restrictions on Market Place, to restrict parking on Wednesdays to Market Traders only (MT prefix), as advertised.
