Glasgow City Council (Linthouse and Shieldhall) and (Shieldhall and Cardonald Park) (Traffic Management and Parking Controls) Orders (Ward 5) – Proposals agreed etc. 3 With reference to the minutes of the Executive Committee of 15th June 2017 (Print 1, page 222) agreeing (1) that following consideration of a report by an independent Reporter regarding the proposed Traffic Regulation Orders (TROs) for the control of on-street parking in the Linthouse and Govan Area (Ward 5), to refer this matter to the Scottish Government Minister for Transport and Islands for a direction under paragraph 9 of Schedule 9 of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984; and (2) to commit to working with all relevant stakeholders, including the local community, the National Health Service and Strathclyde Partnership for Transport (SPT), to conduct a comprehensive review of all public transport options for the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital, including exploring all rail options, and to commit to encouraging a modal shift away from individual car use through the expansion of the car club scheme, Councillor Anna Richardson, City Convener for Sustainability and Carbon Reduction, presented a report updating the committee on the Glasgow City Council (Linthouse and Shieldhall) and (Shieldhall and Cardonald Park) (Traffic Management and Parking Controls) TROs, advising (a) of the background to the proposed TROs and the chronology of events, including applications to Scottish Ministers for time-limited extensions to the period to make the orders; (b) of the Scottish Ministers’ response to the referral for direction, as detailed in Appendix 1 of the report, which had stated that, as neither the Council nor any third party had suggested that the Council’s duty under the terms of section 122 (1) of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 was not being discharged satisfactorily, there was no basis in which to issue a direction in this regard; and (c) of the following options open to the Council:- (i) that the Council could agree that an extension of time was now not required and the TROs could not be made as the previous time limits for consideration had now passed and instead the issue of parking controls be included within the review to be chaired by SPT, as detailed in the report; or (ii) to allow the Council to continue the statutory process and make a decision on the TROs to apply to the Scottish Ministers for an extension of the time limit, detailing the time sought and the reasons why the extension was needed. After consideration and having heard Councillor Richard Bell, Bailie John Kane and Councillor Allan Young, local members, the committee agreed that (A) a request to the Scottish Ministers for an extension of time was no longer required, meaning that the TROs could not be made as the previous time limits for consideration had now passed; and (B) the issue of parking controls in the area be referred to the review group to be chaired by SPT, which would include all relevant stakeholders, including this Council, which would provide a full and comprehensive review of all transport provision within the area, and allow a holistic approach to the current and future transport and parking provision for the Queen Elizabeth University Hospitals. .
