Earlier in the year, the Scottish Government’s Planning and Environmental Appeals Division advised us that a Reporter had been appointed to consider the objections (including ours) to the proposed traffic regulation order for the Council’s Meadows to George Street project.  They also advised us that the Council had provided a Statement of Case in further support of their proposals. We have reviewed this document against our original objection and have now submitted some further comments.

These comments highlight continued concerns about the adverse impact on residents and businesses in our area of the project including the planned traffic restrictions on The Mound, failure to increase pavement widths, loss of disabled parking and further installation of floating bus stops as well as a lack of documentation used to justify the project.

The Reporter has announced that a public hearing of the matters raised by all the objections will be held between 17 and 24 June. NTBCC will be represented at this hearing.

If you have any comments or questions about our objection and additional comments, please let us know using the Contact form on our website.
