Decision:
The Cabinet Member for Transport Management APPROVED:
a. the introduction of 20mph speed limits in Wallingford as advertised,
b. a reassessment by officers of the roads proposed to remain at 30mph, including subsequent further consultation and approval as required.
Minutes:
The report presented responses to a statutory consultation on the proposed introduction of 20mph speed limits in Wallingford.
Following the town council representation and conversations with the local member, which included information about activity along some of these roads, a reassessment of the roads proposed to remain at 30mph needed to be undertaken.
The Chair invited the speakers to address the meeting in turn and responded to points raised.
The Chair read out a written submission from local resident, Andrew Millar.
It was agreed and noted that officers would not start implementation of the proposed scheme until further consultations on speed limits on other roads in Wallingford had taken place. Officers would wait and coordinate speed limit changes in Wallingford as a whole.
Officers agreed to review pre-consultation procedure to ensure that responses are received.
The Chair thanked all speakers for attending the meeting.
