Cabinet Member Report Page 3 Part 1 Public 5. The proposals were shared with local Ward Councillors who wanted to make sure that since there are already extensive parking restrictions in Montague Road, that regular visits are carried out by Parking Enforcement as no one should be parked in the residents’ bays unless they are a resident or a visitor, or at all on the single yellow line (unless there is a valid blue badge on display). The Parking Enforcement Team have advised that Civil Enforcement Officers regularly visit the road. For example, between 4th April 2025 and 11th May 2025, two penalty charge notices were issued to vehicles parked in Montague Road and 101 vehicle registration checks were carried out. As the road is enforced regularly but residents are still experiencing issues, Ward Councillors advised that they are supportive of the proposals progressing to formal consultation due to the road safety concerns at the location. 6. Statutory consultation was carried out between 21 st May 2025 and 11th June 2025. During this time, properties directly adjacent to the proposals were sent a copy of the plan and letter explaining how to comment on the proposals if they wished to do so. The proposals were also advertised in the local newspaper and via public notices on street. 7. During this 21-day consultation period, two comments were received. O ne was in support of the proposals and one objected to the proposals. The comments can be seen in the table attached to this report as Appendix B. 8. The comment in support was from a resident who reiterated the issues of inconsiderate and dangerous parking reportedly by customers visiting ‘The Gardeners Arms’, especially on the bends in Montague Road. The resident also highlighted how some drivers park partly on the pavement which is obstructive for pedestrians, particularly those with pushchairs or wheelchair users. 9. The objection to the proposals advised that having additional double yellow lines here will impact their business, due to the problems they can foresee with deliveries and customers who may be deterred due to the increase in restrictions. 10. As the Cabinet Member will be aware, drivers can legitimately load and unload on waiting restrictions such as single and double yellow lines. Deliveries should therefore still be able to take place as they currently do so long as the vehicle is parked in a safe location and the driver is seen to be loading and unloading. 11. Blue badge holders are also able to park on single and double yellow lines for up to three hours, as long as there are no loading restrictions and it is in a safe location. Blue badge holders are also entitled to park in residents’ permit bays as long as a valid blue badge is on display for an unlimited amount of time. 12. The comments were shared with local Ward Councillors who advised that they have taken the comments into consideration, however due to the obstructive parking taking place at this location, particularly on the bends in Montague Road, they support the proposals to be implemented in full to improve the road safety. Financial Implications The estimated cost associated with the recommendations to this report is £1,000 and will be managed within existing revenue budgets for the Transportation Service.
