Residents responses to the consultation carried out at the end of last year have been analysed.

The majority of responses from those residents who reside in the top section of Hill Rise to the junction of Tolmers Avenue, indicate to proceed to the formal stage with a single yellow line, operating Monday - Friday, 11am - 1pm.

The Traffic Regulation Order will now be produced and sent to Herts County Council for approval. Residents will be notified in writing when this is formally advertised.

The majority of responses from residents who reside in the middle section of Hill Rise to the junction of Highfields have opted against the additional restrictions outside of their homes. Comments were received about the proposed double yellow lines at the junction of Sutherland Avenue, however due to the narrow section of this road and vehicles are completely blocking the pavement to allow free movement. The Council will be progressing this to the formal stage, the Traffic Regulation Order will now be produced and sent to Herts County Council for approval. Residents will be notified in writing when this is formally advertised.

Requests have been received for some junction protection at the top end of Hill Rise.
This was due to the narrow road and the tight turn you need to make when entering Hill Rise from The Ridgeway.
Any vehicles parked here make it incredibly difficult and dangerous.

The council proposed to introduce double yellow lines at the junction to prevent parking and ease congestion.
In response to the proposals, residents raised some concerns about the displacement of vehicles further down Hill Rise.

The letter to the right has been sent to residents in the area informing them of proposals to extend the restrictions on Hill Rise to the junction of Highfields. Residents have the option to opt for single yellow lines or a resident parking permit scheme.
A plan is enclosed outlining the extent of the restrictions.

If you have any comments to the proposals, please send these to the Council by the 15^th December 2016.

Colesdale - Double Yellow Lines

During the Cuffley wide consultation in 2015, proposals included double yellow lines at the garage vehicular access. During the formal stage, one objection was received relating to these lines.
This was considered at the March 2016 meeting of the Cabinet Housing and Planning Panel and they recommended the lining to be introduced on safety grounds. This was approved by the Council's Cabinet on 5th April and the Traffic Regulation Order was sealed and advertised in the Welwyn Hatfield Times on the 20th April 2016,. Notices were erected in the road and letters were sent to residents informing them of the outcome of the consultation. There were a number of other roads included in the Order and the physical lining and any associated signage was introduced during June 2016. Unfortunately, this section of lining was missed during this work.

Therefore, the Council will be finishing off the lining during week commencing 29th May 2017.
