| 7. | The Kent County Council have adopted formal powers to enforce double parking and parking at dropped kerbs under the Traffic Management Act 2004. As a consequence on 1 March 2011 the Kent Highway Services Parking Manager sought and was granted permission by Kent County Council’s Environment Highways and Waste Policy Overview & Scrutiny Committee to give written approval to each district council to commence such enforcement. This report therefore seeks the support of the Joint Transportation Board to agree that Ashford Borough Council should adopt the powers to enforce these parking matters. |
