A4 speed limit changes and homes plan

All areas: Latest proposals in public notices

Each week, the Express publishes public notices containing important information affecting the community you live in. These statutory notices help keep the wider public informed about key issues, from plans to develop a block of flats in your neighbourhood to an application by your local bar or pub to serve alcohol for longer.

This week’s public notices feature changes to speed limits in Slough and a plan to build houses in Burnham.

Traffic

A 30mph speed limit is set to be introduced on a large part of the A4 Bath Road in Slough.

Slough Borough Council has announced the speed restrictions will be in place on the A4 Bath Road, High Street, Wellington Street, Sussex Place, London Road and the Colnbrook By-Pass.

The 30mph zone will start 40 metres west of Bath Road’s junction with Huntercombe Lane North and Huntercombe Lane South.

It will end on the A4 ColnbrookBy-Pass, approximately 250 metres east of the junction of the A4 London Road and Sutton Lane.

A 40mph speed limit is also being introduced on part of the A4 London Road and Colnbrook ByPass.

Slough Borough Council has announced the 40mph speed restrictions will start 250 metres east of the junction of the A4 London Road and Sutton Lane. It will end on the A4 Colnbrook By-Pass east of its junction with the western entrance of Lakeside Road.

The application seeks permission to sell alcohol at the shop from 8am until midnight, Monday to Sunday.

Planning

A planning application has been submitted for a new housing development in Burnham.

The plans seek permission to build a terrace of six four-bedroom homes on land to the rear of 68 Dropmore Road.

Each property includes two car parking spaces and a further four visitor spaces are proposed.

A number of objections have been submitted to Buckinghamshire Council over the development.

Concerns include the proposed terraced housing ‘not being in keeping with the neighbourhood’.
