LONDON BOROUGH OF LAMBETH
STREATHAM HILL LOW TRAFFIC NEIGHBOURHOOD – PHASE 2
EXPERIMENTAL BAN ON VEHICLES USING MOUNT NOD ROAD AND ROSEDENE AVENUE AS THROUGH ROADS AND WAITING RESTRICTIONS IN MOUNTEARL GARDENS, MOUNT NOD ROAD AND ROSEDENE AVENUE
AS AN EXPERIMENT, RESIDENTS OF TREDWELL CLOSE AND PARTS OF HILLSIDE ROAD AND PALACE ROAD WILL BE ABLE TO APPLY FOR PERMITS TO PARK IN THE STREATHAM HILL EAST “M” CONTROLLED PARKING ZONE
[NOTE: This Notice is about banning motor vehicles from using Mount Nod Road and Rosedene Avenue as through roads and the introduction of “at any time” waiting restrictions in parts of Mountearl Gardens, Mount Nod Road and Rosedene Avenue. Residents of certain properties that are situated outside of, but adjacent to, the Streatham Hill East “M” Controlled Parking Zone will be able to apply for permits to use the residents parking places in that zone. All this will all be introduced as an experiment in the first instance. Objections to this being continued on a permanent basis may be made, as well as any other comments – see paragraph 7.]
1. NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Council of the London Borough of Lambeth on 14 May 2021 made the Lambeth (Prescribed Routes) (No. 6) Experimental Traffic Order 2021, the Lambeth (Waiting and Loading Restriction) (No. 5) Experimental Traffic Order 2021 and the Lambeth (Streatham Hill East “M”) (No. 1) Experimental Traffic Order 2021, under sections 9 and 10 of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984.
2. The general effect of the Orders, which will come into force on 21 May 2021, will be to:-
(1) ban motor vehicles in Mount Nod Road from proceeding past the south-west side of Hailsham Avenue, in either direction (vehicles, except pedal cycles, will also be banned from turning right into Mount Nod Road from Hailsham Avenue);
(2) ban motor vehicles in Rosedene Avenue from entering Stockfield Road;
(3) ban motor vehicles in Stockfield Road from entering Rosedene Avenue;
(4) introduce a ban on waiting by vehicles at any time at the locations described in the Schedule to this Notice (this will be indicated by double yellow lines on the carriageway);
(5) provide that residents of the following properties may apply for a permit to park in the permit holders parking places, which have traffic signs indicating the permit identifier “MR”, within the Streatham Hill East “M” Controlled Parking Zone, subject to certain conditions and on payment of a charge (details of which are available on the Council’s website):
(a) Hillside Road, Nos. 7 to 23 (odd numbers inclusive) and Nos. 26 to 118 (even numbers inclusive);
(b) Palace Road, Nos.1 to 3 (odd numbers inclusive) and Nos. 6 to 18 (even numbers inclusive); and
(c) Tredwell Close, all properties.
3. The Orders are intended to restrict, and thereby reduce, through motor traffic travelling between Leigham Vale and Leigham Court Road by using streets within the Low Traffic Neighbourhood, to improve air quality, increase road safety for all road users and improve the amenity of the area, whilst retaining vehicular access for residents and local businesses. The introduction of double yellow lines is necessary to provide turning space for vehicles affected by the restrictions and improve sight lines. To alleviate the inconvenience faced by certain households in Palace Road and Hillside Road, that are located outside the Streatham Hill East “M” Controlled Parking Zone, it is intended that they be able to apply for permits to park in that zone, should they wish to do so. This permission would last for as long as the trial low traffic neighbourhood is in operation. The Orders are being introduced as an experiment in the first instance so their effect on the roads concerned and those in the surrounding area can be assessed before a decision is made about whether to continue them permanently.
4. Where it appears essential for certain purposes, the Council’s Assistant Director of Infrastructure, Environment, Public Realm & Climate Change Delivery, or any person authorised by them, may modify or suspend any of the Orders or any of their provisions under section 10(2) of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984.
5. If you have any enquiries about this matter, please contact the Council’s Transport Team by email to: lowtrafficneighbourhoods@lambeth.gov.uk.
6. A copy of each of the Orders and other documents giving detailed particulars about them (including maps) would usually be made available for inspection at the offices of Lambeth Council's Highways Team (Resident Services), 3rd Floor, Civic Centre, 6 Brixton Hill, London SW2 1EG, until the Orders cease to have effect. However, owing to restrictions relating to the COVID-19 pandemic, this is not currently possible and the Order and other documents are therefore available for inspection on-line instead at: www.lambeth.gov.uk/traffic-management-orders. Copies of the Orders and the other documents are also available on request, by email to: bpoulter@lambeth.gov.uk or by telephoning 020 7926 0209.
7. The Council will consider in due course whether the provisions of the experimental Orders should be continued in force indefinitely by means of permanent Orders made under section 6, 45 and 46 of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984. Any person may object to the making of the permanent Orders, within a period of six months beginning with the date on which the experimental Orders come into force or, if the any of the experimental Orders are varied by another Order or modified pursuant to section 10(2) of the 1984 Act, beginning with the date on which the variation or modification or the latest variation or modification comes into force. Any such objection or any representation must be made in writing and must state the grounds on which any objection is made and be sent to Barbara Poulter, Highways Team (Resident Services), London Borough of Lambeth, PO Box 734, Winchester, SO23 5DG (emails sent to bpoulter@lambeth.gov.uk are acceptable). Any objection or representation received may be communicated to, or be seen by, other persons who may have an interest in this matter.
8. If any person wishes to question the validity of the Orders or of any of their provisions on the grounds that it or they are not within the powers conferred by the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984, or that any requirement of that Act or of any instrument made under that Act has not been complied with, that person may, within 6 weeks from the date on which the Orders are made, apply for the purpose to the High Court.
