Ardleigh Green BridgeWorks update

During the last month, your three ward Councillors Eagling,Wise and Donald attended a meeting with Council staff andrepresentatives from Transport for London with regards to theproposed closure of the Bryant Avenue Exit with the A127when the Ardleigh Green bridge works get progressed further.We raised a number of concerns with TFL in respect of theBryant Ave exit. These being:• whether there are any safe alternatives to full, temporary

closure of Bryant Avenue as this will cause severe impactto local residents;

• whether there is adequate access for emergency vehiclesduring the period of closure;

• whether servicing and delivery vehicles to businesses and residences in thearea will be able to continue satisfactorily during the closure period;

• whether they can provide adequate means for traffic leaving Bryant Avenueto join traffic on the A12 (for example, by traffic lights and / or adjustment toexisting traffic lights) especially to avoid traffic ‘backing up’ in Bryant Avenue

We also asked TFL to:• confirm that the A127 project works and linked traffic management will not

be concurrent with any works linked to Gallows Corner (TfL safety schemeand / or works linked to proposed Kentucky Fried Chicken franchise unit atthe junction)

• demonstrate to the Council’s satisfaction how local rat-running in the widerHarold Wood area will be avoided during the scheme works (includingwhilst Bryant Avenue is closed for temporary periods

• monitor traffic throughout the period and liaise with Councillor Donald on this• explore with TfL colleagues the scope for compensation to businesses who

are adversely affected by the scheme and / or temporary closures• liaise with LBH Communications on a comprehensive communications

strategy for the wider area including regular progress updates, meetings andexhibitions

TFL did advise however that there will be an initial temporary closure periodsfor Bryant Avenue in September / October 2015 as a ‘pilot’ for the subsequentlonger closures starting in July 2016 for approx 9 months in terms of identifyingproblems, issues and solutions.We are waiting for TFL to clarify and confirm some of the actions and

We are FestivalI attended the Council's SafetyAdvisory Group debrief on theFestival on 6 July, which includedthe organisers, the police,licensing, environmental health,health and safety and otheragencies. There was generalagreement that the problems ofnoise experienced in previousyears had not been repeated thisyear and the measures theorganisers had put in place i.erepositioning of stages and fewerin number coupled with areduced decibel levels had madea big difference. There had been asignificant in reduction in crimenumbers, although a number ofdrug related incidents werereported. Calls to the Festivalhelpline mainly focused on litterand this was dealt with quickly bya mobile team. The trafficdiversions put in place had to beamended in fast time in light ofheavy traffic and congestion.Transport arrangements didcause significant concern, mainlyon Saturday evening when therewere no black cabs and buses

were unable to cope with thenumbers and in addition withpeople walking along the roads toget to Upminster, clearly verydangerous. The organisersacknowledged this was aproblem. No licensing applicationhas yet been submitted for 2016,although this is expected. Theorganisers plan to hold aresidents feed back meeting inthe near future but no date hasyet been fixed.

BlockedDrivewaysInconsiderate motorists whoblock driveways are a persistentcause of complaint; however thecircumstances in which any kindof enforcement can be appliedhas often been hazy. In order togive a definitive guide of what canand can't be done, the followingshould be of assistance. Recentchanges in legislation (Section 14- London Local Authorities andTransport for London 2003) meanthat a Penalty Charge Notice

(PCN) canbe issuedby thecouncil tovehicleswhich areobstructinga droppedkerb (driveway)whether

there is a car in the drive or not.A PCN can therefore be issuedwhere the kerb has been loweredfor the purpose of:• assisting vehicles entering or

leaving the road• assisting pedestrians crossing

the road• assisting cyclists entering or

leaving the roadAn important factor is that a PCNcan only be issued if an occupiercontacts the council withregistration details and requests aPCN to be issued. This avoids thescenario where a PCNmight beissued to a resident parkingacross their own driveway orwhere legitimate visitors areparked with the occupiersconsent.Any resident requiring this course

of action should call the Traffic &Parking Control Team on 01708432787 or 01708 434698 (after5pm) and provide the registrationdetails whereupon a CivilEnforcement Officer will attend assoon as is practically possible.It is also important to rememberthat the call must be done at thetime the vehicle is obstructing thedrive way as a PCN cannot beissued retrospectively.

place recently on a local resident.It was the age old one of 'needingsome roof works done'. Theperson is often charming andpresentable and wins a resident’sconfidence. Once they have thatthey ask for money up front, do abit of work, although unnecessary,and then ask for more money as'it’s more serious and you needmore work done'. More money isdemanded and the resident, whoby now feels an obligation, givesthemmore money. Some is incash where the scammer getsthem to go to the bank or gets theresident to take out a loan andhave it transferred electronicallyinto their bank account. Theresident is sometimes left withdamage that does cost to haverepaired as well as a large loss ofsavings. Regrettably many of thevictims are older residents andalso feel to embarrassed to tellanyone. The message is NEVERrespond to builders or othertrades people who just knock onthe door. Be polite but if possibletake a note of their descriptionand if there is a vehicle, theregistration number and report itto the police and the Council’s

Trading Standards Officer. Thecouncil keeps a list of reputablebuilders and other trades peoplewho have been vetted and aretrustworthy. Never be afraid toreport this as it may savesomeone else being scammed. Itsa despicable crime.

Tackling FlyTippingFly tipping is not only a blight onour landscape but costs Haveringcouncil tax payers around

£750,000 per year to deal with.Last month we put down amotion to Council expressing ourconcerns to Government thatthere is currently no specific fixedpenalty for the offence of flytipping, instead it involves alengthy and expensive process ofprosecution which is far from anefficient or good use of resources.Our motion requested that aFixed Penalty Notice of up to£1,000 be created, that full costsof successful prosecutions areawarded to councils and that anational strategy of sharing bestpractice be considered. We shallsee how the government respond,but in the meantime, if you see flytipping do report it to HaveringCouncil.
