Report by Director for Community Operations (Interim) (CMDE5).

The report presents responses received to a statutory consultation to introduce and amend waiting restrictions and disabled persons parking places (DPPP) at Samphire Road, Oxford put forward as part of an improvement scheme for the road funded by Oxford City Council, who own and manage most of the adjacent residential premises. The scheme will create 19 on-street and 17 off-street parking places but require removal of two existing on-street DPPPs. However, a new on-street DPPP is being created on the highway very close to the location of one of the bays being removed and similarly a DPPP is also being provided on each of the off-road parking areas at the west end of the road very close to the other bay being removed.

The Cabinet Member for Environment is RECOMMENDED to approve proposed no waiting at any time restrictions and a disabled persons parking place at Samphire Road, Oxford as advertised.

Approved
