Runnymede parking review 2021

There are a number of stages involved in the review, and these are explained below.

The current stage is: Advertising and objections

Introduction

During April and May 2021, we looked once again at on-street parking issues across the borough. These were issues of concern that have been brought to our attention largely by members of the public, the police, councillors and highway officers since the previous review took place. We visited, assessed, and prioritise requests for new or amended parking controls in different locations across the borough. We then prepared a report of our findings and recommendations.

This years review includes the advertising of potentially the first on-street Electric Vehicle Charging Points in the borough. It also includes measures to control the parking around Windsor Great Park where visitor numbers have increased dramatically in the past 18 months

Committee authorisation

We presented this report of our findings and recommendations to the Runnymede Joint Committee at its meeting on 6 July 2021. The written report and associated drawings are Item 10 on the agenda. Councillors read, discussed, asked questions of officers and agreed the recommendations in the report giving their approval for all the proposals to be formally advertised and consulted upon with the public.

Advertisement and objections

All the proposals approved by the committee members are now being advertised. The consultation starts on 1 October 2021 and lasts for 28 days. Finishing on 29 October 2021.

PDF Drawings of what is proposed to change are available to view below. Drawings are displayed by County Councillor division. Additionally there are separate drawings showing the proposed locations of on-street Electric Vehicle charging points across the borough, and three sets showing the parking controls we are proposing to introduce on the streets around Windsor Great Park

If you have received an A5 card, or letter through your door, read a street notice or been made aware in some other way and wish to support, comment upon or object to one or more of the proposed changes you can submit your feedback by completing this form.

Please note that any Egham town centre proposals are be displayed in the Englefield Green division.

Approval

All the feedback that is received during the 28 day formal advertising period, is then collected together into a report. The report is presented to the Joint Committee Chairman, the County Councillors and Borough Councillors who sit on the Joint Committee to read. Taking the feedback submitted into account, together we decide on the best way forward and make final decisions on how to proceed at each location where changes are proposed.

When that process is complete and the final decisions are published on this web page for everybody to read. All the people who wrote to us with feedback during the formal advertising stage will be replied to individually informing them of the outcome in due course. These decisions are final.

Implementation

Installing the agreed changes on the roads will then take place.

A final Traffic Regulation Order (TRO), will be made and published, so the changes made in the review then become legally enforceable by Civil Enforcement Officers.
