Shropshire Council (School Streets Initiative – School Lane, Gobowen) (No. 1) (Experimental Prohibition of Motorised Vehicles) Order 2024

On 11 June 2024 Shropshire Council made an order to place an experimental prohibition of motor vehicles restriction on the eastern arm of C1003 School Lane, Gobowen, commencing from its junction with B5009 Chirk Road and terminating at its junction with B5069 St. Martin's Road. The restriction will operate between 8:15am and 9:15am, and between 2:30pm and 3:30pm, Monday–Friday, during school terms at Gobowen Primary School.

Holders of a school streets permit, emergency vehicles being used in an emergency, medical practitioners, statutory undertakers and vehicles engaged in building or maintenance work, taxis and buses, Royal Mail vehicles, funeral and wedding vehicles, and motorised wheelchairs, will be exempt from these restrictions.

This order comes into effect on 24 June 2024 and will operate for a period of up to eighteen months. We'll consider in due course whether its provisions should continue in force indefinitely.
