Purpose:

Transport for Buckinghamshire was commissioned to install an uncontrolled pedestrian crossing point on the High Street and The Causeway in Marlow Town Centre. After the Road Safety Audit was undertaken, the suggested comments by the auditor to enable the crossing to be implemented safely was to undertake a waiting restriction review at these sites to comply with DfT departmental advice Note TA 12/81 Table 1 April 1995 which refers to the advised line of sight for the crossing. The project involves removing two parking bays on eastern side of The Causeway near the junction with Station Road and replace with No Waiting / No Loading at any time; Removing two parking bays on the western side of High Street, south of the junction with Pound Lane and replace with No Waiting / No Loading at any time. The proposals also include implementing No Loading at any time in addition to the existing No Waiting at any time on Pound Lane and Station Road in the vicinity of the roundabouts to further enforce the required sight lines. Statutory Consultation has been undertaken between 17th May 2019 and 7th June 2019 and a Key Decision Report has been prepared.
