In a recent public notice, the Borough of Broxbourne has announced its intention to implement new disabled persons' parking places across several roads within the borough. This proposal, under the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984, aims to enhance accessibility for disabled residents and visitors by providing designated parking spaces in strategic locations.

The proposed order will establish new disabled parking bays adjacent to or outside specific premises in Hoddesdon, Turnford, Wormley, Cheshunt, and Waltham Cross. Notable locations include Hawthorn Road, Lord Street, Castle Road in Hoddesdon, Garner Drive in Turnford, Westlea Road in Wormley, and various streets in Cheshunt and Waltham Cross.

Additionally, the council plans to remove certain existing disabled parking spaces that are no longer in use. These removals will occur at locations such as Murchison Road and Middlefield Road in Hoddesdon, The Croft in Wormley, and several streets in Cheshunt.

How can I view the full details of the proposed order? Detailed documents including maps and the council's reasoning for the order can be inspected on the Broxbourne Council's website under their community consultations section.

What should I do if I have concerns about these changes? Those who have any concerns or believe they may be adversely impacted by these changes are encouraged to submit their objections or representations in writing. Correspondence should be directed to the Strategic Director at Borough Offices Bishops’ College or via email to TROs@broxbourne.gov.uk by January 23 2025.
