AUGUST  UPDATE OF OLD LAUND BOOTH PARISH COUNCIL DURING THE CORONAVIRUS LOCKDOWN

1. Updates

LCC has responded regarding the parish council’s request for speed cameras on the bypass. They say the present policy of the Lancashire Road Safety Partnership is that no more fixed speed cameras are to be provided to allow resources to be used for mobile enforcement so that the benefits of these activities can be spread more widely across the roads of Lancashire.
 
Several roads in Lancashire have also had, or are planned to have, average speed cameras installed in response to the higher rates of collisions which can be addressed by this type of equipment. The funding for these came from national funds reserved for the roads in England with the worst casualty records. There are no plans to install these cameras on the A6068 at this time but each year we prepare schemes to address the collisions in Lancashire and again the schemes are directed at locations where they will have the greatest benefits. When this process is carried out for next year's programme of schemes the A6068 will be considered along with all the other roads in Lancashire to be included within that programme which is expected to be finalised in spring 2021.

The clerk has applied for a new green waste bin sticker from Pendle for Harpers Garden. The sticker has been renewed free of charge.

Pendle Borough Council has added the request for a new sign at Cuckstool Lane to the list for new nameplate, once funds are available
