Line (markings) and associated traffic management for Ketton parking restrictions

To make TRO according to proposal and implement.

The approach to be adopted by traffic authorities in considering whether to make a TRO should be as follows:
(1) The decision-maker should have in mind the duty (at S.122 of the 1984 Act) to secure expeditious, convenient and safe movements of vehicular and other traffic including pedestrians in so far as is practicable (NB this case also confirmed that “traffic” extends to include pedestrians)
(2) The decision-maker should then have regard to factors which may point in favour of imposing a restriction on that movement; such factors will include the movement on the amenities of the locality and other relevant factors including those set out at S.1 of the 1984 Act
(3) The decision-maker should then balance the various considerations and come to the appropriate decision
