1. NOTICE is hereby given that on 20th September 2024, the London Borough of Hackney made changes to Experimental Traffic Order THE HACKNEY (DUNLOE STREET AND SHRUBLAND ROAD) (WAITING, LOADING AND STOPPING RESTRICTIONS) (MAP BASED) (EXPERIMENTAL) ORDER 2024

THE HACKNEY (DUNLOE STREET AND SHRUBLAND ROAD) (PARKING PLACES) (MAP BASED) (EXPERIMENTAL) ORDER 2024 (TT1728) under the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 ("the Act") and all other enabling powers.

2. The effect of this Experimental Traffic Order amendment (ETO), which comes into operation on 27th September 2024, will be to revoke Dunloe Street (LM1) from the experimental order reverting back to a permit bay.

The London Borough of Hackney statement of reasons for undertaking an experimental order are as follows;

a) To pilot a potential solution aimed at increasing the uptake of alternative delivery systems where more km are travelled by zero emission modes of transport in the borough and surrounding boroughs (Climate Action Plan Objective).

b) To contribute to the Council’s aspirations of reducing vehicle dominance in the borough and therefore creating a more attractive neighbourhood for shopping, socialising and travelling to and from work, home or school.

c) To contribute to helping achieve the Council’s climate emergency declaration by reducing the use of combustion engine vehicles and therefore petrol and diesel vehicle emissions.

d) To contribute to tackling the serious effects of poor local air quality by reducing petrol and diesel vehicle emissions within local neighbourhoods.

3. The London Borough of Hackney will in due course be considering whether the provisions of the ETO should be continued in force indefinitely. Accordingly, these changes are being introduced for a trial period before consideration is given to whether the provisions of the ETO should be made permanent.

4. The ETO will continue in force for a period of 18 months, during which time a permanent Order will be considered. Within a period of 6 months from the date on which the ETO comes into force, any person may object to the making of a permanent order. Should the ETO be varied or modified, the 6 month period will begin with the day on which the variation or modification (or, as appropriate, the latest variation or modification) comes into force. Any objection should be made in writing, giving the grounds on which it is made and should be emailed to streetscene.consultations@hackney.gov.uk. Any comments in support of the ETO are also invited during this period.

5. Section 10(2) of the RTRA 1984 provides that an experimental traffic order may include provision empowering a specified officer of the Council who made the order (or another person authorised by that specified officer) to modify or suspend the operation of the order or any provision of it if it appears to him or her to be essential in the interests of the expeditious, convenient and safe movement of traffic; in the interests of providing suitable and adequate on-street parking facilities; and/or for preserving or improving the amenities of the area through which any road traffic affected by the order runs. Such provision has been included in the ETO.

6. Documents giving more detailed particulars are available for inspection during normal office hours on Mondays to Fridays, in the visitor’s reception area, London Borough of Hackney, Hackney Service Centre, 1 Hillman Street, London, E8 1DY by appointment only. Plans for proposed measures can be requested for inspection by emailing streetscene.consultations@hackney.gov.uk.

7. Any person wishing to question the validity of the ETO or any of its provisions on the grounds that it is not within the powers of the relevant enabling Act or that a requirement of any such enabling Act or of any relevant regulations made there under has not been complied with may, within six weeks from the date on which the ETO was made, make application for this purpose to the High Court.

Dated this 20th day of September 2024

Tyler Linton, Assistant Director - Streetscene (Duly appointed officer)
