A couple of months ago, Pam and I were approached by residents of Braystan Gardens on the South Park Road estate about the Give Way lines.  The problem is that cars often can’t get out of Braystan Gardens for several minutes because of traffic on the Kingsway service road queueing up.

We asked the Council to take a look and they came up with two options which we detailed here.

The Council has now carried out a proper consultation, which shows residents in favour of option B – to give Braystan residents right of way and put a yellow hashed box down to keep their exit clear.

This now has to be properly advertised across Stockport, as required by law, and anyone can object during that process.  After the advertising (which I think has to be a month), the local councillors will take into account any comments and make a final decision, after which the order will be put in for the changes to be made.
