Bromsgrove road set for double yellow lines and parking bays

Bromsgrove Editorial 1 hour ago   0

A MAJOR road in Bromsgrove looks set to have double yellow lines and parking bays installed.

Worcestershire County Council has made an order to take measures to prohibit waiting at any time on the Birmingham Road.

The order will come into effect on the southeast side of Birmingham Road, from a point 61m from the roundabout, with approaches from All Saints Road and Burcott Road, for 6m in a south-westerly direction.

They will also be installed from a point 116m from the roundabout with approaches from All Saints Road and Burcott Road for 5m in a south-westerly direction.

The county council has also revealed it will be imposing limited waiting parking bays along Birmingham Road.

The authority said the limited waiting would be for one hour between 8am and 6.30pm, with no return within two hours.




These will be installed on the Southeast side of Birmingham Road, from a point 67m from the roundabout with approaches from All Saints Road and Burcott Road for 55m in a south westerly direction.

The council has said the order, which is to come into effect on July 16, will contain exemptions to allow parking and access for certain purposes and limited waiting by disabled persons’ vehicles.


A spokesperson for the authority said: “Worcestershire County Council have made this Order for facilitating the safe passage on the road or any other road of any class of traffic, and for avoiding danger to people or other traffic using the road or any other road.

“It is also for preventing the likelihood of any such danger arising.”

“It is considered that that Order will contribute to the securing of the safe and convenient movement of all traffic, including pedestrians, and will have no adverse effect on other considerations contained in Section 122 of the 1984 Road Traffic Regulation Act.”

The order was first mentioned on the Worcestershire County Council website back in April, and a month-long consultation took place.
