SUFFOLK COUNTY COUNCIL (DISTRICT OF BABERGH)

(STOPPING, WAITING AND LOADING PROHIBITIONS AND RESTRICTIONS AND ON-STREET PARKING PLACES (MAP-BASED) ORDER 2019 (HADLEIGH) (VARIOUS ROADS) (PROHIBITION OF WAITING) (VARIATION NO.36) ORDER 202-

Suffolk County Council proposes to make the above order under Sections 1(1) and (2), 2(1) to (3), 4(2) and Part IV of Schedule 9 of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984, as amended, which would substitute revision 2 of Map Tile GR97 in place of revision 1 of the same Map Tile, into the above-named 2019 Order. The effect of this would be to introduce:

‘No waiting at any time’ on:

? East side of Station Yard (U8903), from its junction with Station Road, in a generally southerly direction for a distance of 17 metres.

? West side of Station Yard (U8903), from its junction with Station Road, in a generally southerly direction for a distance of 12 metres.

? South side of Station Road (C730), from a point 15 metres west of the centre line at its junction with Station Yard, in an easterly direction for a distance of 30 metres.

Exemptions to the waiting restrictions allow a vehicle to wait for so long as is necessary to board or alight or to load and unload for building, industrial or demolition works; for emergency services; for the maintenance of the road or its services; and for fulfilling statutory duties. There are the usual exemptions for Blue Badge holders.

Copies of the draft order, map showing the roads affected and the Council’s reasons for the proposals, may be seen with advance notice at the address below, 9am - 5pm Monday - Friday; also at Hadleigh Library of 29 High Street, Hadleigh IP7 5AG between the hours 9am - 5pm Tuesday and Wednesday, 9am - 6pm Thursday, 9am - 5pm Friday, 9.30am - 5pm Saturday, and 10am - 4pm Sunday.
