MODIFICATION -
In response to representations received during the Notice of Proposal (Public Consultation) period between 17th April 2025 and 9th May 2025, the extent of the proposed Permit Holders Zone 1 Lechlade/Limited Waiting 2 Hours No Return 2 Hours Mon-Sat 8am-6pm restrictions along Burford Street has been modified. Two sections of proposed parking bays have been removed and replaced with different restrictions.
The first is the section of carriageway outside of The Swan, which has been replaced by a parallel to the kerb Loading Only Bay. This is in response to comments received regarding loading and unloading practices along Burford Street and the potential for the Cellar Doors to The Swan’s Cellar being obstructed by parked vehicles overhanging the kerb in the existing echelon bays. The parallel bay will provide dedicated loading space on Burford Street for all businesses to utilise, as well as prevent vehicles parking in such a way that they overhang the kerb and prevent the cellar doors being opened (particularly during an emergency).
The second is the section of carriageway outside of New Wave Brasserie where the existing Keep Clear marking is. This keep clear is now proposed to be replaced by No Waiting at Any Time (Double Yellow Line) restrictions, to formalise the parking restrictions in this area. It will also prevent obstructions for deliveries to businesses in this area, which will continue to be able to load and unload on these restrictions.
Additionally, the proposed No Waiting at Any Time (Double Yellow Line) restrictions on the south side of St John’s Street have been extended. This extension is to addresses concerns raised about the potential for obstruction to the private driveway and is intended to ensure that access to and from the property remains unobstructed at all times. The extension will also contribute to improved visibility and safety for all road users in the area.
