Proposed Traffic Orders

Orders for consultation

Peartree Way and Shephall Green - Restriction of Waiting

The council carried out site investigations following reports from Peartree Way Nursery School and Greenside School about parking issues during busy drop-off and pick-up times. Concerns were raised about pupil safety due to dangerous and obstructive parking.

Investigations found that unrestricted parking at the locations listed in the Order's schedule can obstruct traffic and create risks for pedestrians. The council is therefore proposing new waiting restrictions in these areas.

Formal objections to the proposals must be submitted in writing, stating the grounds for objection and including the objector's full name and address. Objections can be sent to Stevenage Borough Council at the address below or by email to tro@stevenage.gov.uk by 13 November 2026.

Comments in support of the proposals will also be accepted during this consultation period.

Collenswood Road - Restriction of Waiting

Following feedback from residents and after completing further site investigations, we have made amendments to the Collenswood Road Experimental Traffic Order. This will allow more availability for on-street parking whilst maintaining access for emergency vehicles.

The council will monitor the effects of the restrictions and may amend the experimental provisions, if considered necessary. The amended Experimental Traffic Order comes into force on 21 October 2026 and may remain in place for up to 18 months.
