Decision details

A formal consultation with internal and external stakeholders for a period of four weeks for the Traffic Sensitive Network followed by a two-week consultation for Lane Rental is approved.

As per the regulations, a consultation must take place for a minimum of four weeks to allow Undertakers to make comment on the updated Traffic Sensitive Streets. This is then to be followed up with a further Lane Rental consultation for a period of two weeks before the final application is sent to the DfT on 1 April 2025.

None considered. The TSS network needs to be updated and consulted on as part of the regulations. In relation to the Lane Rental project, in order for the Authority to identify the Lane Rental Network, the TS streets need to be in place. There is the potential to press on with the application, however, other Authorities that have submitted their applications to the Department for Transport (DfT) without a traffic sensitive review have been asked to complete one before the application can be processed any further which could cause significant delay to the project.
