Traffic Management Programmes 2002/03

Report of the Director of Environment

Item 9

Contact: Peter Bayless, ext 6882

1. Summary

1.1 This report covers the main programmes of Traffic Management work in the Rushmoor area. These are the revenue funded Traffic Regulation Orders (TROs) and signing schemes.

2. Traffic Regulation Orders and Signing Schemes

2.1 Traffic management issues are raised in a number of ways, usually by local District or County Members or the public. Occasionally attention is drawn by the Police or other emergency services to traffic congestion or parking problems. These issues are prioritised and investigated, which may result in schemes being proposed for inclusion in the programme. The current list of potential schemes for the 2002/03 programme in the Rushmoor area is shown in the attached appendix.

2.2 This programme is provisional at this stage, with scope to include additional schemes that may arise as a high priority. Schemes already in the programme may slip, be modified or deleted as consultations progress and where the advertising procedure for TROs gives rise to objections.
