A series of reports have been produced by Sheffield City Council to investigate air quality throughout the City, including most recently the Stage 4 Review and Assessment report published in December 2002. These reports forecast that annual average concentrations of nitrogen dioxide (NO2) will exceed the standard laid down in the national air quality strategy in designated Air Action Zones1 in two parts of Sheffield, the City Centre and areas around the M1. The largest contributions to NO2 levels in the two AAZs are from road traffic (for both the M1 and the city centre) and ‘area’ sources (for the city centre alone, covering the domestic, commercial, public and small industry sectors).

PUBLIC QUESTIONS AND PETITIONS 5.1 Public Question in respect of land at the top of the Brindley Estate A representative of the Brindley and Mundella Tenants and Residents Association (TARA) referred to previous correspondence with the Council and Councillor Jack Scott, Cabinet Member for Environment, Recycling and Streetscene around 12 months ago as to the possibility of obtaining permission to be allowed the use of grass land at the top of the Brindley estate, to make it into a fenced play area for local children to be able to play ball games etc. and to take some pressure off the tenants and residents in the area. They therefore asked why it was taking so long for Councillor Scott to give their community a definite yes or no to the request? The questioner then stated that Councillor Scott had told the TARA that the Council had determined the land was to be handed to the parks and recreation department and that there would be allotments allowed on the land.

The introduction of a 20mph speed limit in this area would be in-keeping with the City’s approved 20mph Speed Limit Strategy. Having considered the objections to the principle of introducing a 20mph speed limit in Greystones and Whirlow the officer view is that the reasons set out in this report for making the Speed Limit Order outweigh the objections. Consideration has been given to objections to the inclusion of a number of specific roads within the Greystones and Whirlow 20mph speed limit area (see paragraph 4.13). Of these it is recommended that the objections to the inclusion of Bents Road and Knowle Lane be upheld. Recommendations: 7.1 Make the Greystones and Whirlow 20mph Speed Limit Order in accordance with the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984, omitting Bents Road and Knowle Lane from that Order.
