AMENDMENT - Consideration of a 7.5 tonne weight restriction (except for access) in Bromyard town centre

To consider the appropriateness of the introduction of 7.5 tonne weight restriction (except for access) on the following roads in Bromyard.
• New Road
• Pump Street
• Frog Street
• Broad Street
• High Street • Cruxwell Street
• Rowberry Street
• Old Road
• Clover Road
• Winslow Road

The weight restriction traffic Order would come with an “except for access” clause. This exemption applies to vehicles requiring access to properties or land adjoining the aforementioned streets.
The purpose of this Order is to stop vehicles over 7.5 tonnes from using these streets purely as a cut-through; thereby directing such vehicles along the B4203 Sherford Street and Station Road and thus away from the residential streets and town centre streets.

The scope of the review is set out in Appendix A and the proposal signage is shown in Appendix B.
