Decisions

The introduction of a red route on the private roads around Castle Donington airport by East Midlands Airport Authority meant that there was an immediate safety concern on the surrounding highway network. It was therefore decided to introduce a red route on the highway network as an experimental traffic regulation order (ETRO) in 2019.
The ETRO has now expired and proved to be successful and for the restrictions to remain in place they need to be made permanent. Due to a delay in making the order permanent the order was re-advertised 2022.

That the red route on the Castle Donington Relief Road, Castle Donington be made permanent.

Following a request from the school, the Authority sought to install additional 'School Keep Clear' (zig-zag) markings outside the school to keep an area clear of stationary vehicles. The proposals intend to provide a safe area for pedestrians to cross.

That the proposed additional mandatory 'School Keep Clear' markings at Rothley Primary School, Burrow Drive and Warren Way be implemented.

The County Council sought to extend the double yellow lines due to a number of concerns regarding parking issues and the difficulty experienced by drivers when accessing the car parks on Wigston Road. The majority of the cars parked on Wigston Road belonged to the people working in the Blaby town centre. The proposed restrictions sought to improve highway safety and provide safe access and egress into the car parks.

That the proposed 'No Waiting at Any Time' Restrictions on a section of Wigston Road, Blaby be implemented.
