Who do we consult?
The requirements are set out in "The Local Authorities' Traffic
Orders (Procedure) (England and Wales) Regulations, a Statutory
instrument approved by Parliament. The most recent version
was made in 1996 although some aspects of older versions are still
relevant. Those who must be consulted about proposed Traffic Orders
are:
- the emergency services
- the Freight Transport Assocation and the Road Haulage
Association
- public transport operators whose services would be
affected
- others organisations representing those who may be affected, an
example might be a parish council
- residents/owners of properties which appear to be directly
affected

Consultation with you
A consultation period of 21 days from the date of publishing the
formal notice is allowed, so that anyone who wishes to comment on
the proposals can do so. It is a requirement of the
Regulations for objections to be made in writing for formal
consultations. Contact details are included on each TRO
consultation according to whether it is a formal or informal
consultation. All written comments are taken into
consideration. The final decision about how to proceed is
taken by the Head of Environment, Transport and Engineering on
behalf of the Council.
