3. Reasons for decision
To improve access on Marina Approach yet still maintain parking for residents.
4. Proposal
1. Marina Approach is a residential cul-de-sac within Yeading Ward. It is accessed from
Glencoe Road, the only way in and out of the development. The road comprises a mixture
of maisonettes and houses. A plan of the area is shown at Appendix A to this report.
2. The Council received a request from the development's Management Company, for
measures to deter vehicles from parking on the turning areas restricting access. As a
consequence, a detailed site investigation was undertaken by Council officers.
3. Officers observed that vehicles are currently parking i n the two turning areas . These
vehicles are restricting vehicles turning round and exiting in a forward gear. The
carriageway is relatively narrow and, conse quently, there is limit ed space to turn around
without them.
4. As a result of the site observations, a proposal was developed to install double yellow lines
on the two turning areas, in order to keep this area clear of parked cars to improve forward
visibility and promote road safety at all times. The proposed ‘at any time’ waiting restrictions
are shown on the plan attached as Appendix B of this report.
5. The Cabinet Member agreed to take the proposal through the statutory 21-day consultation
process, which involved the placing of advertisements in the local press and the display of
public notices on site. During this period, the Council received two objections and five in
support.
6. The first objector stated “I have an electric car …which I ….. do a 14 hr charge. I have
always parked in front of my house. If at any time I had known there were going to be yellow
lines at the front of my house, I would not have purchased an electric car and installed a
wall charger. I have already started having anxiety cos I cannot afford public charging costs.
…….. The road has been safe for years without restrictions.”
7. The second objector stated”
I believe this proposal is disproportionate and will have a
significant negative impact on the local area for the following reasons: Reduction in Vital
Parking: The proposed lines will remove parking for residents without off -street parking,
worsening an already difficult parking situation. Displaced Parking: The restrictions will
move vehicles to other, potentially less safe, areas, resulting in parking on grass verges or
obstructing neighbouring roads. No Evidence of Need/Safety Risk: The road is currently
safe. Parked cars on this stretch actually serve as a traffic calming measure. Impact on
Visitors/Care Services: Residents rely on visitors, carers, and delivery vehicles being able
to park near their homes. Visibility/Safety: Argue that current parking does not cause

dangerous obstructions, and that the lines will actually create obstruction in traffic flow, ease
of traffic and support motor movements. Impact on Vulnerable People: neighbours....... have
accessibility issues, or are carers relying on close parking. Previous History: Note that the
road has been safe for years without restriction.”
8. The first supporter stated” We are in support of the proposed installation of double yellow
lines in Marina Approach Hayes. It has become more congested, making it really difficult for
emergency services to get in and out, this is a big concern for us, and the neighbours.”
9. The second supporter stated” I would like to thank you very much for the intention to put
yellow lines at the turning points in my road, adjacent to no 18 and 19. This will make the
road, so much easier for ambulances and any large vehicles to turn around, and far safer
for everyone. I believe the original plans say the areas designated are for turning points.”
10. The third supporter stated” I have no objections to this scheme.”
11. The fourth supporter stated” I am writing to formally express my support for the proposed
installation of double yellow lines on Marina Approach, specifically regarding the turning area
opposite my property. As a resident of XX Marina Approach, I believe these restrictions are
necessary to ensure the turning area remains clear, improving access for emergency
services and general road safety for all residents.”
12. The fifth supporter stated” I would like to express my sincere thanks for this proposal. After
years of ongoing issues, it is truly appreciated that the council has taken action. This has
been a long standing concern, and I am very grateful that it is now being addressed.
I would also like to mention that the majority of the neighbours are supportive of this proposal
and are grateful for the council’s efforts.”
13. The local Ward Councillors have been consulted, and two have responded one supporting
the proposal and one supporting only outside Nos 39 & 40 Marina Approach.
14. After careful consideration of the comments received from the statutory consultation and the
thoughts of the local Ward Councillors, it is recommended that the Cabinet Member agrees
to proceed only with the proposed ‘at any time’ waiting restrictions on the turning area by
Nos. 39 & 40 Marina Approach, Hayes in Appendix B to this report.

a) Financial
The cost associated with the recommendations to this report is estimated at £480 and will be
managed within existing revenue budgets for the Transportation Service, subject to the spend
review panel.
b) Legal
The Council’s power to implement the proposed ‘at any time’ waiting restrictions is set out in
section 6 of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984. The consultation and order -making statutory
procedures to be followed are set out in Schedule 9 of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 and
the Local Authorities’ Traffic Orders (Procedures) (England and Wales) Regulations 1996.
Consultation must also meet the standard set by established common law principles in public law,
namely fairness and adequacy.
If a decision is taken to make an order introducing ‘at any time’ waiting restrictions, Part 5 of the
Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 and the Traffic Signs Regulations and General Directions 2016
set out the signage requirements, which must be observed.
In exercising any of the powers under the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984, section 122 of the
1984 Act requires the Council to consider its statutory duty to secure the expeditious, convenient
and safe movement of vehicular and other traffic ( including pedestrians), and the provision of
suitable and adequate parking facilities on and off the highway. These powers must be exercised
so far as practicable having regard to the following matters:
(a) the desirability of securing and maintaining reasonable access to premises;
(b) the effect on the amenities of any locality affected and the importance of regulating and
restricting the use of roads by heavy commercial vehicles, so as to preserve or improve
amenities of the areas through which the roads run;
(c) the national air quality strategy;

Classification: Part 1 Public Page 5
(d) the importance of facilitating the passage of public service vehicles and of securing the
safety and convenience of persons using or desiring to use such vehicles; and
(e) any other matters appearing to the Council to be relevant.
Moreover, the Council has various statutory duties in relation to road safety, such as under section
39 of the Road Traffic Act 1988 and section 16 of the Traffic Management Act 2004, which are
relevant when deciding on road traffic measures. To this end, the report states that the proposed
waiting restrictions will keep the area clear of parked cars , improving forward visibility and
promoting road safety at all times
Pursuant to established public law principles on consultation, the decision maker, when deciding
on progress of the proposed waiting restrictions, must be satisfied that all consultation responses,
including those that do not accord with the officer's recommendation, were conscientiously taken
into account. Regulation 13 of the Local Authorities’ Traffic Orders (Procedures) (England and
Wales) Regulations 1996 also requires the Council to consider all objections made. In this report,
it is highlighted that the consultation responses helped to inform the recommendations within this
report to approve the introduction of ‘at any time’ waiting restrictions on the turning area by 39 &
40 Marina Approach, Hayes (as shown on Appendix B to this report ) and not to approve the
introduction of the proposed ‘at any time’ waiting restrictions on the turning area by 18 & 19 Marina
Approach, Hayes (as shown at Appendix B to this report).
The Council must also be continuously mindful of its public sector equality duty under section 149
of the Equality Act 2010.
c) Alternative options
The Council could decide to proceed or not proceed with the installation of all the ‘at any time’
waiting restrictions as advertised.
d) Risk management
The Council could decide to proceed or not to proceed with the installation of the ‘at any time’
waiting restrictions as advertised.
e) Other implications
Nil.
6. Consultation & engagement
Consultation has been carried out on this proposal through a notice on site and in the local press.
Local Ward Councillors have also been consulted.
