Traffic Management Programmes

Report of the Director of Environment

Item 7

Contact: Richard Hague, tel 01962 857807

1. Summary

1.1 This report covers the main programmes of traffic management work in the Hart area in 2004/05 and 2005/06. These are the revenue funded Traffic Regulation Orders (TROs) and signing and lining schemes, and also the capital-funded rural traffic calming schemes promoted in partnership with the Parish Councils for 2004/05. This programme will be completely funded from capital for the year 2005/06.

2. Background

2.1 Under the new agency arrangements for traffic management, which were completed on 30 December 2004, Hart District Council has taken over direct responsibility for certain traffic management functions throughout the district area on behalf of the County Council.

2.2 As part of the agency arrangements, regular liaison meetings take place between officers of the County and Borough Councils to discuss proposed schemes and develop positive partnership arrangements.

3. Traffic Regulation Orders and Signing and Lining Schemes

3.1 Traffic management issues are raised in a number of ways, usually by Parish Councils, local District or County Members, or the public, and occasionally by the Police or other emergency services. Schemes that have been progressed as part of the 2004/05 programme in the Hart area are shown in Appendix 1. Schemes included in the list are, at this stage of the year, either operational or expected to be completed by the end of the financial year.

3.2 Schemes for the 2005/06 programme in the Hart area are listed in Appendix 2. The programme is provisional at this stage, with scope to include additional schemes that may arise as a high priority. Schemes already in the programme are often subject to delay, modification or deletion as consultations progress, or where the TRO advertising procedure gives rise to objections. For the first time, the 2005/06 traffic management programme will be funded from the Capital Programme and will include the Parish Partnership Schemes. Overall funding levels will continue to support an extensive county-wide programme of schemes with scope for top-up funding on a priority basis to individual Traffic Management Agencies over and above the annual allocation.

4. Parish Partnership Programme

4.1 Further progress has been made on those schemes already identified in the Parish Partnership Programme within the Hart District area. Appendix 3 includes those schemes expected to be completed in 2004/05.
