HIGHWAYS REPORT

12/11/2020 - HORSELL 20MPH SPEED LIMIT - 7pm

Woking Joint Committee agreed that:

 

(i)    Lych Way, Wilson Way, Pares Close, South Close and Meadway Drive, extending approximately 165m northeast from its junction with High Street, Horsell are included within the previously approved proposal for a 20mph limit on part of Church Hill and High Street; and

(ii)   a notice is advertised in accordance with the Traffic Regulation Act 1984, the effects of which would be to introduce the proposed 20mph speed limit in the aforementioned roads; and

(iii)  any objections to the Traffic Regulation Order should be considered and resolved by the Area Team Manager for Highways in consultation with the Chairman and Vice-Chairman of the Joint Committee and the local Divisional Member, and that this issue only be returned to Committee if any objections prove insurmountable; and

(iv) the Order be made once any objections have been considered and resolved.

Reason for Recommendation:

The recommendation, to include several cul-de-sacs and part of Meadway Drive in the previously approved scheme for a 20mph limit on parts of Church Hill and High Street, Horsell, would result in less signage and street clutter and would result in a more sensible, coherent scheme.
