Traffic regulation orders

Traffic regulation orders (TROs) are a major form of traffic management.

Highway authorities, like Peterborough City Council, can make TROs to control the movement and waiting of vehicles. Reasons for making a TRO might include:

  • to improve safety for pedestrians, or other persons and/or traffic using the road
  • to prevent damage to the road or any building near the road
  • to facilitate the free flow of traffic
  • to prevent the road being used by unsuitable traffic
  • to preserve or improve the amenities of the area through which the road runs

Examples of TROs are:

  • parking or loading restrictions including loading bays, disabled bays, resident permit parking, limited waiting and bus stop clearways
  • charges for car parks or Pay & Display bays
  • double/single yellow lines
  • one way streets
  • no entry
  • speed limits
  • prohibitions of types of vehicles (for example by weight or width, bus lanes, cycle lanes)
  • prohibited manoeuvres (such as 'No Right Turn')
