Ashbourne Traffic Disruption

Additional traffic management measures will start from Monday 10 March, including local diversions northbound to avoid the closed section of the A515: 

• Southbound light traffic will be unaffected and will be able to travel down Buxton Road as usual. 

• Cars and light vehicles wishing to travel north (A515 St John Street) should follow diversions for ‘Town Centre Parking’ along Park Road, Cokayne Avenue and The Green Road, as an alternative to Compton, Dig Street and St John Street.

• Hall Lane will be one way from South to North (uphill), open for access and buses only. Entry will be from Park Rd/Cockayne Avenue. 

• Northbound HGVs will be diverted away from the town centre. 

• A short diversion remains in place along King Edward Street, Station Road and Church Street. 

The road closures and HGV restrictions are expected to stay in place until September this year.

Ashbourne Market Place Closure

From February 6, the Market Place in Ashbourne will no longer be a car park, as works get under way for the UK Government funded Ashbourne Reborn programme. The highways and public realm project, led by Derbyshire County Council, will transform the historic centre of the town, with wider pavements, pedestrian crossings and improved public spaces. The changes will celebrate the town’s heritage while enabling a wide variety of future events to bring new life to the centre of town.

Artist’s Impression

Alternative car parks are available at the Cattle Market, Cokayne Avenue, Shawcroft, the Bus Station, Swimming Pool, and Clifton Road. Although part of Fishpond Meadow is currently being used as a temporary compound for contractors delivering the Highways and Public Realm project, at the end of the scheme the site is due to be returned to Derbyshire Dales District Council for future use as overspill car parking.

More cars are parking there of late but I must request this is held off for the rest of July.

In August / September the space will also needed for the removal vehicles and family helping me relocate. Please use other areas to park including free parking down the lane.

Traffic in Parwich

Concerns about road safety in the village have been brought to the attention of the Parish Council. The Parish Council has no direct powers to address this sort of concern as the Highways Authority is Derbyshire County Council.

The Parish Council has decided to write again to its County Councilor asking for these concerns to be addressed. The text of this letter is below.

In order to provide substance to any future lobbying, residents are encouraged to note any “near misses” that concern them. These can be e-mailed to the Parish Clerk using clerk@parwichparishcouncil.org.uk

Text of e-mail to Councillor Spencer:

Dear Councillor Spencer,

Parwich Parish Council have asked me to write to you as their local councillor.
 Would you please bring the following matters to the attention of the relevant Cabinet member and Committee.
 
20 mph speed limits.
In 2020 the Parish Council was provided with a lengthy explanation of Derbyshire County Council’s reluctance to implement 20mph speed limits. Since that time residents and councillors have seen the widespread implementation of 20mph limits in other parts of the country. There is continued concern in the village about vehicle speeds. Especially where there are blind corners and no pavements. The Parish Council would like to place on record their continued disappointment that Derbyshire County Council remains unwilling to act to limit speeds in small villages like Parwich.
 
Playground sign.
In 2019 it had been agreed that it would be beneficial to install a ‘children playing’ warning sign on the main road through the village as it approaches our unfenced children’s playground on the village green. This was to be addressed when money became available. In 2020 in a reply addressing this (as well as the speed limits) Gill Turner again advised that

“this is something that is proposed commensurate with current priorities and workloads”
 
However the village is still waiting for this signage to appear.
 An update on both matters would be appreciated.

Regards

Andrew Martin

Clerk RFO. Parwich Parish Council

Beware Scaffolding !

We have some roofers at the house this morning, fixing the damage done by vans clipping the roof trying to turn onto Kiln Lane from Creamery Lane.

They’ve erected some scaffolding which is in the road just prior to the left turn onto Kiln Lane as you come up Creamery Lane.

Getting past might be a bit tight (should be fine for cars) so people may want to go via Kiln Lane if they need to access the houses above.

They should be finished by this afternoon.

Thanks,

Mark A
