The general effect of the Order will be to introduce no waiting at any time restrictions (double yellow lines) along parts of Fen Street in Brooklands, that are yet to be adopted as public highway.

The proposed restrictions will help to alleviate obstruction and encourage a safer environment for pedestrians and cyclists whilst the road is open to public.

As the Highway Authority for the above lengths of road, Milton Keynes City Council is satisfied that the introduction of the above proposed restrictions will help encourage a safer environment throughout.

The Council's reasons for proposing the above Order are as follows: -

1) To maintain a safe environment throughout the road, particularly to encourage and facilitate pedestrian and cyclist movements along Fen Street in Brooklands;

2) For avoiding danger to people or other traffic using the above roads, or to prevent the likelihood of any such danger arising.

The proposed restrictions will be operational at all times and will be marked out in accordance with Traffic Signs Regulations and General Directions 2016.

The Council will continue to monitor the way in which highway facilities are used and address any issues that come to its notice and following meaningful consultation with all stakeholders do what it considers necessary to facilitate the expeditious, convenient and safe movement of vehicular and pedestrian traffic.
