Decision:

The Cabinet Member for Transport Management APPROVED:

 

a)    the introduction of 20mph & 30mph speed limits in Yarnton as advertised,

 

b)    a reassessment by officers of the speed limit on Cassington Road including subsequent further consultation and approval if required.

 

Minutes:

The report presented responses to a statutory consultation on the proposed introduction of 20mph speed limits in Yarnton, along with a new 30mph speed limit on Sandy Lane – between the proposed new 20mph in Yarnton and the newly introduced 20mph in Kidlington.

 

Officers agreed to review the speed limit on Rutten Lane after concerns raised by the Parish Council. Because the length of road being reviewed was only approximately 50 yards, if changes were to be made, it would not need a public consultation.

 

Officers agreed to review speed limits on Cassington Road after concerns raised by the Parish Council. If further consultation was required, officers would await the outcome of the consultation before implementing any approved speed limit changes in Yarnton.
