Issue - meetings

This report presents responses received to a consultation on proposed new sections of ‘No Waiting at Any Time’ (double yellow lines) parking restrictions on Camp Road and Wellington Road, Upper Heyford. These proposals are being put forward in order to help prevent parked vehicles obstructing visibility at junctions and help the passage of traffic, as well as improving safety for more vulnerable road users. Additionally a 28 metre loading bay for Goods vehicles loading only, all days between 6am & 6pm is proposed on the north side of Camp Road, approximately 102 metres west of its junction with Wellington Road, adjacent to the retail development. This proposal seeks to alleviate the safety concerns raised over attempted deliveries to the stores.

a)    Camp Road - a bay for Goods vehicles loading only, all days between 6am & 6pm, on the north side of the road adjacent to retail premises

b)    Camp Road & Wellington Road - new sections of ‘No Waiting at Any Time’ (double yellow lines).
