The Experimental Traffic Regulation Order on the St George’s Road Byway which the Parish Council and villagers have been calling for is to start on May 20th. It can run for 18 months and will be monitored by Wiltshire Council’s Highways team.
The effect of the Order is to prohibit motor vehicles (except for access) on the complete lengths of byways 21 and 22 (Hilperton) and Byway 9A (Semington). These files provide more details: the Experimental Notice, and the formal Experimental Order. Thanks are due to Wiltshire Cllr Jonathon Seed who has championed this Traffic Regulation Order on behalf of the village.
The Parish Council asks everyone to report any use of the track by motor vehicles violating the Order. These need to be sent to Wiltshire Police by phoning 101 or via their on-line reporting tool, to integrated.transport@wiltshire.gov.uk and to byway@semington.org.uk
Ideally, the data needed are:
- Date / time
- Location
- Registration number
- Speed – ok or too fast
- Whether there was any danger to other users, or any altercation between users
