What Arlen Hill is responsible for
Each time a change gets proposed, we need to consult residents so we can make sure it's the right decision. These changes are sometimes called Traffic Regulation Orders (TRO's).
The types of traffic decisions we are responsible for include:
- Road markings (like double yellow lines)
- School Streets
- Speed limits in residential areas
- Low Emission Zones (sometimes called LEZ's)
- Residents' parking schemes

Nelson Street permanent measures
In 2020, due to COVID-19, the council implemented temporary measures on Nelson Street to create space for social distancing, improve facilities for walking and cycling in the area and to reduce the amount of cut-through traffic. Tell us whether you think these measures should be made permanent.

Your impact
Here are some traffic decisions we made based on your contributions and feedback
20mph limit on Broad Street
- 68% of respondents said they supported a resident parking scheme, but that we should consider low income residents.
- The resident parking zone became effective in July 2023.
Resident-only parking
- Lots of respondents were either concerned or very concerned about speeding along this road as children walk along it on their way to/from school.
- We will implement a 20mph zone along a stretch of Broad Street so that pedestrians can get around safely.
Cycle lane along High Street
- Respondents were generally in support of more cycle lanes but this route has created a number of hazard points for drivers.
- We will make the High Street cycle lane permanent, but only along stretches that don’t cause hazards.
