The proposal relates to a request from residents of Langley Green for parking restrictions in a residential area in the vicinity of community health centre, shops and school. Obstructive and inconsiderate parking in Langley Drive and at other nearby locations restricts access and visibility for traffic entering and leaving the roads making the roads unsafe for both drivers and pedestrians. Inconsiderate parking for nearby shops & medical centre obstructs access and there is evidence of damaged kerbs & grass verges in Langley Drive & Leveret Lane.
Following the Statutory Public Consultation, between 28th October 2020 and 25th November 2020, there were 14 objections received, along with 2 expressions of support. All objections are included in Appendix B to this report.
