30/04/2021 - *Republished - no longer subject to call in* Proposed Prohibition of Motor Vehicles, U1858/9 Kirby Bank

Having considered all representations and objections submitted in response to the consultations and public advertisements, taking into account other possible orders which could be made in respect of the route and the current significant damage to the route, the Corporate Director, Business and Environmental Services (BES), in consultation with the BES Executive Members considers it is expedient for the order to be made for the reasons set out in the revised Statement of Reasons and that its continuing use by motor vehicles is likely to cause further damage to the road and will also have an adverse effect on its existing character and the amenities of the area.

In recommending the implementation of the proposed TRO, it is considered that it will enable the County Council to comply with its duty under Section 122 of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 to secure the expeditious, convenient and safe movement of vehicular and other traffic (including pedestrians) and the provision of suitable and adequate parking facilities on and off the highway.
