The consultation documents are available for collection from the Post Office in Pack Lane or from a number of websites in the borough. The text which follows has been taken from the Basingstoke and Deane website to ensure complete accuracy. In 2003, the Council introduced traffic calming measures along Pack Lane comprising a series of fifteen pairs of speed cushions and raised tables at three junctions. Since the implementation of these measures there have been various calls for the ‘humps’ to be removed; others have called for the ‘humps’ to remain.
Hampshire County Council (the Highway Authority) has the final say on this matter, but as the Borough Council took the initiative for installing the ‘humps’, I’m reviewing possibilities for their removal or alternative measures. As part of this review the Council has:
The Council would like to know what residents and road users think about the current arrangements and the options that have been considered. These are outlined on the fact sheet at the bottom of this page, which also includes background information explaining why the ‘humps’ were installed and what the results have been. For completeness and to avoid doubt I have included those measures that people may want to see but which are for the reasons stated not available to us.
Also included at the bottom of this page is a response form which you can use to have your say. I should be grateful if you would complete the form and return it to the following address by no later than 31 March 2008. ** This information has been reproduced from the Basingstoke and Deane website **
