Bedfordshire, Leighton Buzzard/ Linslade- Traffic Restrictions, on waiting, and the proposed introduction of disabled parking bays.

CENTRAL BEDFORDSHIRE COUNCIL PROPOSES TO INTRODUCE

WAITING RESTRICTIONS ON SOULBURY ROAD

SERVICE ROAD, LINSLADE

Reason for proposal: The proposed restriction is intended to avoid danger to persons or other traffic, and to prevent the likelihood of

such danger arising. It also aims to facilitate the safe and efficient passage of traffic, including pedestrians, on the road and surrounding network. In addition, the extension of restriction times and days is proposed to deter long-stay commuter parking, which currently contributes to congestion and limits access for residents and short-stay users.

Effect of the Order:

To introduce No Waiting from Monday to Sunday between 10.00am and 12.00pm on the following lengths of road in Linslade:-

1. Soulbury Road Service Road, south side, from a point in line with the northwest property boundary of No. 132 and extending southeasterly for approximately 25 metres.

2. Soulbury Road Service Road, north side, from a point in line with the northwest property boundary of No. 132 and extending southeasterly for approximately 240 metres.

3. Soulbury Road Service Road, south side, from a point approximately in line with the shared property boundary between No. 118 and No.120 and extending southeasterly for approximately 198 metres.

To introduce No Waiting at Any Time on the following lengths of road in Linslade:-

1. Soulbury Road Service Road, northwest side, from the junction with Soulbury Road and extending northeasterly before following the curvature of the kerb northwest for approximately 10 metres.

2. Soulbury Road Service Road, southeast side, from the junction with Soulbury Road and extending northwest before following the curvature of the kerb northeast for approximately 10 metres.
