Having taken all the matters referred to in the Report and the oral representations made at the meeting into consideration; reviewed the concerns raised and the extent of the Orders proposed, on balance, the decision is to implement a limited traffic management scheme that is:

1.            on Downs Road – to implement the one way order from Allen Close to Great Northern Road.

2.            on Downs Road and Barton Avenue – not to implement this prohibition and to monitor the impact.

3.            on Park Road – not to implement the one way order from Great Northern Road to Grove Road and leave this two way.

In addition, parking restrictions on a 30m stretch (the bend) on Park Road will be considered and will be consulted upon at the same time as the parking restrictions for Howard Place.
