The Norfolk County Council (Dereham, Market Place) Pedestrian Crossing Notice 2025

As required under Section 23 of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 notice is hereby given that Norfolk County Council propose to install a 6 metre Zebra pedestrian crossing point at the following location in the location:

C540 Market Place —

From a point 50 metres north of its junction with the C540 High Street

Distances measured from the centre of the junction to the centre of the crossing.

The reason for this proposal is to provide a safer environment for pedestrians within an urbanised area.

The Norfolk County Council (Dereham, Market Place) Bus Stop Clearway Notice 2025

As required under Schedule 7, Part 3 of the Traffic Signs Regulations and General Directions 2016, Notice is hereby given that Norfolk County Council propose to extend the bus stop clearway along the C540 Market Place (East Side) by 20 metres:

C540 Market Place (East Side) —

From a point 58 metres north of its junction with C540 High Street northwards for a distance of 68 metres (an increase of 20 metres)

The Bus Stop Clear will prevent any vehicles from stopping at any time, except buses.

These measures are in response to concerns to keep the area around the bus stop free from parked or waiting vehicles, ensuring buses can safely and efficiently pull in and out without obstruction. This helps maintain smooth traffic flow, enhances passenger safety by providing a clear boarding zone, and improves visibility for both bus drivers and other road users.
