Charlie Reynolds, Operation Manager introduced
the Objections to Traffic Regulation Orders Report.
The report identified proposals intended to
resolve parking problems and improve traffic flow by reducing
localised congestion in accordance with the Council’s
priority to improve access across the Borough through better
roads.
The Board considered each of the
recommendations identified in the report in turn, voting on each
before agreeing the overarching recommendations of the report.
NOTE: Councillor Chittenden requested that Maidstone Borough Council
and Kent County Council work together urgently to resolve the
flooding and cleaning problems that exist along The
Mallows.
RESOLVED:
1.
That the Joint Transportation Board recommends to the Strategic
Planning Sustainability and Transport Committee each of the
recommendations identified in the report be agreed and the
objectors informed of the outcome; and
2.
That the Board recommends to Kent County Council as the Highway
Authority that the orders be implemented as outlined in the
report.
