Report by Director of Environment and Highways (CMDT16).

Proposals relating to changes required to existing parking restrictions as part of a development which is creating access onto Broadway, Didcot.

The Cabinet Member is RECOMMENDED to:

a)    Approve the introduction of new ‘No Waiting at Any Time’ parking restrictions (Double Yellow Lines) on the northern side of Broadway in Didcot, as advertised.

The Chair introduced the item to the meeting.

Officers explained that the proposal sought to remove six short-stay parking spaces on Broadway to accommodate increased vehicle movements associated with a proposed car wash development and to improve safety for all road users.

Officers confirmed that alternative parking provision was available nearby and that the displaced parking demand could be accommodated elsewhere within the town centre.

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

RESOLVED to:

a)    Approve the introduction of new ‘No Waiting at Any Time’ parking restrictions (Double Yellow Lines) on the northern side of Broadway in Didcot, as advertised.
