3 CITY OF WESTMINSTER ATTERBURY STREET, JOHN ISLIP STREET, PONSONBY PLACE AND PONSONBY TERRACE THE CITY OF WESTMINSTER (PRESCRIBED ROUTES) (NO. *) TRAFFIC ORDER 201* THE CITY OF WESTMINSTER (PARKING PLACES) (D ZONE) THE CITY OF WESTMINSTER (WAITING AND LOADING RESTRICTION) Statement of Reasons The measures are proposed in connection with the extension to the Cycle Superhighway Route 5, and are intended to mitigate the effects on other traffic. The banned right turn from John Islip Street is intended to prevent traffic from using Ponsonby Place and Ponsonby Terrace as rat-runs. The banned right turn from Atterbury Street into Millbank should prevent obstruction of northbound traffic by vehicles waiting to enter the southbound traffic stream and of the turn lane into Atterbury Street from Millbank. The prohibition of goods vehicles (the maximum gross weight of which exceeds 7.5 tonnes) from entering Atterbury Street from Millbank will prevent conflict between goods vehicles and cyclists using the Millbank cycle lane. The relocation of the parking place in Ponsonby Place will facilitate the construction of build-outs at the junction with John Islip Street. The introduction of double yellow line at any time waiting restrictions at the junctions of Ponsonby Place and Ponsonby Terrace with John Islip Street will prevent obstructive parking at the revised junctions. The introduction of two-way working in Atterbury Street will provide an alternate route for vehicles travelling from Bessborough Gardens to Millbank following the introduction of a no left turn restriction at the junction of Bessborough Gardens, Millbank and Vauxhall Bridge. The amendments to the parking places will assist with the transition to two-way traffic and allow for the re-routing of the No. 88 bus route. The introduction of double yellow line at any time waiting restrictions at the junction with Millbank will prevent obstructive parking outside of the hours of control.
