Spokes deputation TEC 10.09.26 - Written deputation from Spokes 7.8 Traffic Orders - TROs Sub-Committee Update: Improvements to the TRO Process 1 Traffic Regulation Order Improvements Spokes wish to thank officers for their work on this report to streamline the Traffic Regulation Order process. We welcome efforts to reduce the onerous typical time required to progress a TRO of 12-18 months, which we have observed to delay implementation of the Active Travel Action Plan and City Mobility Plan. Spokes encourage the use of delegation to officers to avoid delays at committee whilst ensuring objections to proposed restrictions are given adequate consideration. We believe that it is necessary to go further to enabling modal shift to address congestion, improve travel sustainability and support the almost 40% of households in Edinburgh which do not own a car. Appendix 4 part E2 sets out examples of reasons that a proposed restriction may be considered ‘Non-Referrable’, meaning that it will be considered by officers instead of committee, regardless of the number of objections (unless called in by the convenor of the Transport & Environment Committee). This is particularly effective for orders containing multiple restrictions across the city bundled together, such as disabled persons parking places or tweaks to controlled parking zones. Objections to these orders may be spread out over the city and should not be automatically referred to committee based on their total number. We believe this should be extended to bike hangar secure parking, cycle hire parking and car club rental parking. These restrictions are often limited to a single parking space, making more efficient use of the space for an overall increase in amenity. However, they are also vulnerable to spurious objections from motor vehicle users. There is also a large shortage of secure bike parking hangars, with waiting lists currently estimated at 4400. Further & background information • Edi.bike article on short…Addendum by the Green Group Transport and Environment Committee 10 September 2026 Item 7.8 – Traffic Orders – TRO sub-committee update: Improvements to the TRO process At the end of recommendations: 1.4 Welcomes the introduction of the publication of a plain English ‘list of measures’ for each order as set out in paragraph 4.20, and asks officers to also consider issuing plain English summaries of the effects of proposed orders along with the List of Measures and asks relevant managers to consider whether Inclusive Communications training would be appropriate for those officers who produce public-facing communications. 1.5 Agrees to adopt the list of referrable/non-referrable orders as set out in appendix 4, part E and agrees to add the following types of restriction/project type to the ‘nonreferrable’ list: 1.5.1 Introduce, amend or remove cycle hangar secure parking and any associated loading restrictions, waiting restrictions or yellow lines; 1.5.2 Introduce, amend or remove cycle hire parking spaces and any associated loading restrictions, waiting restrictions or yellow lines, 1.5.3 Introduce, amend or remove car club parking spaces and any associated loading restrictions, waiting restrictions or yellow lines 1.5.4 Introduce, amend or remove electric vehicle charging points and any associated loading restrictions, waiting restrictions or yellow lines 1.6 Agrees to establish a member/officer working group to consider further improvements to streamline the TRO process, with the remit including, but not limited to, consideration of the following: 1.6.1 Further use of plain English rather than legalese. 1.6.2 Examination of whether the move to a map-based system allows further reduction in the use of legalese. 1.6.3 Consideration to embedding TRO specialists within teams that make significant use of TROs, such as Road Safety or Active Travel.
