Decision details

Resolved that the recommendations as set out in section 3 of the report and as follows be approved:

The Task Group considered all the above requests and recommended that a 20mph speed limit on Mill Lane, Kings Road and Boundary Road is progressed to the statutory advertisement and consultation stage but not on Hambridge Road.

The Task Group recommended that no further action is taken on the following requests with regard to the speed limit, but further measures should be considered where shown below:

1.    Priors Court School, Chieveley – investigate possible measures funded by the Section 106 contributions from the School.

2.    Chieveley Village – request for a 20mph speed limit

3.    Cow Lane, East Ilsley - Request for extension to 30mph speed limit

4.    A4 Strongrove Hill, Hungerford -  Request for extension to 40mph speed limit

5.    Old Newtown Road, Newbury – Request for a 20mph speed limit in the vicinity of St Johns School

7.    A4 Padworth dual carriageway - The speed limit does not need to be reviewed again by the speed limit task group. Measures identified in TMA168 are programmed for 2014/15 and further investigations are to be undertaken following the coroner’s report.

All the persons requesting the speed limit amendments will be informed of the Executive Member’s decision.

Subject to there being no objections received to the statutory consultation for individual Traffic Regulation Orders for each speed limit, the advertised restrictions will be introduced.

This decision is eligible to be ‘called-in’.  However, if the decision has not been ‘called-in’ by 5.00pm on 7 April 2014, then it will be implemented.
