Decision Maker:

Simon Moss

Assistant Director, Planning, Regeneration and Transport 

Details of Specific Cabinet Delegation

or Delegation contained in the relevant Sub-Scheme of Delegation.

To promote, consider objections to and implement Traffic Regulation Orders under the Traffic Regulation Act 1984.

Decision:

The key recommendation of the report is to continue with the making of the orders for the proposal.

Reasons for the Decision:

There is a risk that without implementing the proposed speed limit extension to better reflect the road environment, drivers may not reduce their speed to an appropriate level, as they travel along this section of Doncaster Road, with the potential for a collision to increase.

Details of alternative options considered and rejected:

Do nothing and keep the existing length of 30mph speed limit as it currently is. 

This option is not being promoted as this would not have the desired effect of improving the road safety environment on this section of Doncaster Road, where there is a proposed new residential development that is currently under construction.
