Making a Start on Miswell Lane Junction Safety and Safer Access to Goldfield School
Tring should slowly be getting a safer place as steps are taken to improve visibility round junctions - and there are quite a few of those onto Miswell Lane.
Strictly speaking - because its prohibited in the Highway Code - double yellow lines are not necessay round corners at road junctions. Both police officers and PCSOs have the authority to issue fixed penalties for "obstructive parking" - which includes parking at junctions or on corners.
However, note only do double yellow lines act as a psychological warning, but, more practically, they are backed up by Traffic Regulation Orders and so bring enforcement within the scope of traffic wardens.
A few more parking restrictions to improve road safety have now been signed off for:
(1) Highfield Road/Miswell Lane junction
(2) Goldfield Road/Miswell Lane junction
(3) Goldfield Road near the Goldfield School entrance
The latter is certainly a bit of regulation that is badly needed to improve journey to school safety.
