(VARIOUS ROADS, BOROUGH OF OADBY AND WIGSTON) CONSOLIDATION ORDER 2022 (LEICESTER ROAD, OADBY, BOROUGH OF OADBY AND WIGSTON) (AMENDMENT 1) ORDER 2026

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Leicestershire County Council has made an Order under Sections 1, 2, 4, 5, 19, 32, 35, 45, 46, 47, 49 and Part IV of Schedule 9 of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 (“the Act”), and of all other enabling powers, and after consultation with the Chief Officer of Police in accordance with Part III of Schedule 9 to the Act, the effect of which will be:

The variation introduces two related changes on Leicester Road.

The existing limited waiting bay is reduced by approximately 5 metres at its eastern end, and the adjacent “no waiting at any time” restriction is extended westwards by a corresponding 5 metres. The effect is that the section of kerb previously available for limited waiting becomes subject to a continuous prohibition of waiting.

The variation is required to facilitate the extension of the footway by way of a build-out, improving intervisibility between drivers and pedestrians using the existing crossing, which is to be incorporated within a raised table. The build-out and raised junction table at the junction of Leicester Road with Stoughton Road and Spencer Street forms part of the wider Oadby A6 Parade scheme.

The Order will come into force on the seventh day of August 2026

A copy of the Order and the relevant map is available for public inspection at County Hall, Glenfield, Leicester LE3 8RA.

The Order can also be viewed online at https://www.leicestershire.gov.uk/roads-and-travel/cars-and-parking/traffic-management-consultations from 4th August 2026.

If you wish to question the validity of the Order or of any provision contained in it on the grounds that it is not within the powers conferred by the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 or on the grounds that any requirement of that Act or any instrument made under it has not been complied with in relation to the Order, you may, within 6 weeks from the date of this Notice, apply to the High Court for this purpose.
