Following the completion of the statutory consultation period
and the subsequent detailed review of all representations received,
the following recommendations are presented for consideration and
determination by the Cabinet Member:
 
It
is recommended that a Public Inquiry should not be held. While the
consultation period revealed significant community opposition to
the original scope of the Prohibition of Waiting on Raglan High
Street (2249), it is advised to proceed with approving and
implementing the proposed orders listed below as originally

As
mentioned above, following significant public opposition to the
original Prohibition of Waiting on Raglan High Street (2249), the
proposed restriction has been substantially reduced. It is
recommended to proceed only with the minimum necessary measure: a
10-meter section on the northern side of the highway, as shown in
drawing 2249 REV B. This adjustment addresses concerns about
economic impact on local businesses and increased through-traffic,
which could compromise pedestrian safety. By limiting the scope to
a safety-critical area with a known sightline obstruction, the
Authority has demonstrated consideration of social and economic
factors.
