We asked
Following initial consultation with residents, businesses and councillors, Winchester City Council made two Experimental Traffic Orders in Great Minster Street and The Square, Winchester on 28/07/21, and effective on 06/08/21. One related to moving traffic restrictions and the other to parking restrictions. Experimental orders can be implemented for up to 18 months, and objections can be made in the first 6 months. Subject to comments received schemes can be reviewed and amended, and made permanent if successful.
The effects of the experimental moving traffic order were to :
- Suspend the existing Prohibition Of Driving (except for access) restriction on Great Minster Street, The Square and Market Street and replace it with Prohibition Of Driving (except for access to off-street premises) in Great Minster Street from its junction with Little Minster Street to the boundary of 6 and 7 Great Minster Street, where bollards have been installed. This prohibits motor vehicle access to The Square via Great Minster Street.
- Suspend the One-Way Traffic restriction on Great Minster Street to enable access and egress via Symonds Street/Little Minster Street to premises on the affected section of Great Minster Street.
- Introduce a Pedestrian and Cycle Zone at weekends from Saturday 10am to Sunday midnight at the following locations. An exemption is included for emergency services access and to allow for a hearse used in the course of a funeral when required with prior approval:
- Great Minster Street from the boundary of no. 6 and no. 7 Great Minster Street to its junction with The Square.
- The Square from its junction with Great Minster Street to a point 79 metres north-west of its junction with Market Street (including the hammerhead but not The Square Service Spur)
The effects of the experimental parking restrictions order were to:
- Suspend a section of the No Loading At Any Time restriction on Symonds Street to provide an informal place for loading/unloading to properties affected by the movement restrictions on Great Minster Street.
- Introduce a No Waiting At Any Time and No Loading At Any Time restriction on the east side of Great Minster Street to facilitate turning movements.
- Suspend the loading bay in The Square hammerhead and introduce a No Waiting At Any Time and No Loading At Any Time restriction, to improve safety. An exemption is included for emergency services access and to allow for a hearse used in the course of a funeral when required with prior approval.
- Suspend the eastern section of the Goods Vehicle Only bay on the north side of The Square and replace with a No Waiting and No Loading Saturday 10am to Sunday Midnight, Goods Vehicle Loading Only Monday to Friday and Saturday 6am to 10am restriction. This is to facilitate turning movements during the operation of the Pedestrian and Cycle Zone.
- Suspend the Pay and Display parking on the south side of The Square from the eastern extent westwards for a distance of approximately 15 metres and introduce Pay and Display Monday to Friday 8am to 6pm, Max stay 1 hour, No return within 2 hours, Loading Only Saturday and Sunday 8am to 6pm.
