Residents of Laverstock and people who regularly drive through Laverstock are being asked to complete a survey on the parking restrictions that have been put in place.
The survey, supported by the Wiltshire Highways Team, aims to evaluate the impact of the parking restrictions, particularly the new yellow lines.
Nick Baker, Chair of Laverstock & Ford Parish Council, who, along with Councillor Laura Jones, has taken the lead on allowing residents to feedback on the scheme implemented six months ago, says, “Wiltshire Council introduced the new yellow lines in response to concerns from residents and parents about dangerous driving, congestion and anti-social parking. They are only one part of a progamme of work in conjunction with the schools, which is also looking at promoting alternative ways to travel and a more creative use of the school sites.
"However, from the beginning, as a Parish Council, we have always emphasised the importance of evaluating the impact of the yellow lines and making changes if necessary. We want to hear from as many people as possible - local residents, parents and other road users. The collated results will then be discussed at the Parish Council meeting on the 17th March at 7 pm at Old Sarum and Longhedge Community Centre.”
The council are keen to hear from all residents, parents and other road users on the impact, for better or worse, that these measures are having, and invites people to take part and express their experience of the new scheme via the online survey.
The Survey closes on March 07, 2025
