Minutes:

The Operations Engineer explained to the Board that the report identified proposed Traffic Regulation Orders (TROs) that had received objections during formal consultation.

Councillor Tippen (Marden Parish Council) made a statement on this item.

The Board commented that although the Pattenden Lane proposal had received a number of objections, failing to proceed with the proposal condoned the contravention of Highways Code Rule 243. This rule stated that vehicles must not stop opposite or within 10 metres of a junction, except in an authorised parking space or when forced to do so by stationary traffic.

RESOLVED: That the Joint Transportation Board recommends to the Strategic Planning and Infrastructure Committee and Kent County Council as the Highway Authority that the proposals for:

1. West End are not proceeded.

2. Pattenden Lane are proceeded.

3. Church Green are proceeded.

4. High Street are proceeded.

5. Sovereign Way are proceeded.

6. Sutton Forge are proceeded.

7. Albion Road are proceeded.

8. Chantry Road are proceeded.

Voting: Unanimous
