Purpose: Representations received during the statutory consultation raised a number of concerns, particularly in relation to traffic displacement onto surrounding streets, the operation and capacity of nearby junctions, and the preferred direction of the proposed One-way System.Concerns were also raised regarding the potential impact on road safety and the wider highway network.In light of these concerns, the introduction of the scheme by means of an Experimental Traffic Regulation Order will enable Leicestershire County Council to monitor the operation and impact of the scheme under live conditions and take account of any further representations received before determining whether the arrangement should be made permanent, amended or removed.
