Variation Order of Temporary Traffic Management
Order of Bridport Market

DORSET COUNCIL intend, not less than seven days from the date of this notice to make an Order under Section 14 [1] of the Road Traffic Regulations Act 1984, as amended. All vehicles will be restricted from using Loading & Parking bays except those authorised by the organisers of Bridport Market as indicated by signs on site. The order is needed in order to comply with health and safety regulations, which require the provision of safe working areas and to minimise the likelihood of danger to highway users. It will come into operation on 22 August 2020 and will remain in force for 18 months. This Order was made on 26 June 2020, however we need to vary item 3 as its varying previous Order.

This Order will enable Bridport Town Council, safe access to facilitate the Bridport Market on Wednesday’s and Saturday’s and ensure government advice around social distancing can be implemented.

The following temporary restrictions will be in place every Wednesday and Saturday between 0700 and 1700;

[1] South Street between the book shop and the launderette, loading bay & disabled parking bay to be restricted

[2] South Street outside Bridport Library, Permit (C)/restricted one hour parking bay to be restricted

[3] East Street between The Greyhound and Palmer Snell, parking restrictions & loading bay to be restricted
