Decision details

The Local Committee (Mole Valley) resolved to agree that:

(i)    A Clearway is introduced at the existing bus stop on Guildford Road Abinger Hammer (at Marsh View). The restriction to be no stopping 7 until 7 except buses Mon-Sat.

Reason for recommendations:

(i)    Buses require parallel alignment with the kerb to deploy ramping and kneeling equipment to allow access for wheelchair users and those with mobility problems.

(ii)   Parked vehicles within bus stops prevent this access.

(iii)  Bus stop clearways enable Borough and District enforcement officers to issue penalty charge notices on offending vehicles thereby discouraging inconsiderate parking.
