Hertfordshire County Council Traffic Sensitive
Streets Review
Summary of Consultation Responses
Executive Summary
We have carried out a review of our traffic sensitive street network as this was identified in
the Reinstatement of Roads scrutiny to reclassify more roads as traffic sensitive streets.
The current traffic sensitive streets network is approximately 890Km long. The proposal is to
designate the winter maintenance network as the traffic sensitive network as allowed under
the designation criteria. This will increase the overall traffic sensitive street network to
2,307Km.
Summary of length of road by District is in Appendix A.
A consultation letter was issued to 212 consultees and the letter directed the consultee to
the relevant pages on Hertfordshire County Councils website. The consultation encouraged
representatives from organisations, business and key stakeholders affected by the proposal
to provide a response.
Consultees are in Appendix B.
The 6 week consultation period began on 11th May 2015 and ended on the 21st June 2015.
This paper provides a summary of the consultation responses and details of how the
responses have been considered and taken forward. A total of 25 responses were received
during the course of the consultation, which have been answered. One response received
after the closing date was considered in the review.
Following the consultation a change has been made to timings of a traffic sensitive period.
Period 1 will be amended from ‘24hr Monday to Sunday’ to ‘05:00 to 22:00 Monday to
Sunday’ to give the works promotor the opportunity to work outside of traffic sensitive times
on these routes. It is recommended Hertfordshire County Council proceed with designating
streets included in the consultation as traffic sensitive.

Background
In accordance with the NRSWA 1991 we are advised to review our traffic sensitive network
every 2 years. The last review of our traffic sensitive street network took place in 1991, over
20 years ago.
We are using the winter maintenance network as this includes all A and B roads and our
major bus routes, outside schools, town centres, industrial areas. These roads are
considered important to the County Council and therefore, should be kept clear for gritting
and obstructions from road works.
This will increase the overall traffic sensitive streets network to 2,307Km of highway,
approximately 46% of the network.
It’s important to remember that a street being traffic sensitive doesn’t mean works won’t be
allowed. It implies a degree of importance to that particular street and highlights the need for
works promoters to discuss their proposals with us. The proposed traffic sensitive street
network should allow us better coordination of all works on the public highway, and ensure
congestion and disruption is reduced on our network, improving journey times and reliability
for all road users.
This consultation was about updating the information held on the National Street Gazetteer
by designating streets as traffic sensitive so that streetworks should normally be undertaken
outside of the traffic sensitive periods.
A street can be listed as traffic sensitive if it meets one or more of the criteria set out in
section 5.4.2 of the New Roads and Streetworks Act 1991. See Appendix C. This Authority
has designated it for pre-salting as part of our programme of winter maintenance and intends
to update the National Street Gazetteer accordingly.
Consultation
Hertfordshire County Council has completed a comprehensive review of their traffic sensitive
streets network. In accordance with TMA (2004), NRSWA 1991, Code of Practice for the Coordination of Street Works and Works for Road Purposes and Related Matters, paragraph
5.4.2 and Section 16 of The Street Works (Registers, Notices, Directions and Designations)
(England) Regulations 2007 criteria for designation as traffic sensitive street is (f) the street
is designated for pre-salting by the street authority as part of its programme of winter
maintenance.
A minimum of 1 month notice period was required in accordance with the regulations for
consulting on the proposals and receiving any objections to proposed changes. The Code of
Practice outlines the groups to be consulted during this period. To comply with these
requirements it’s proposed that Hertfordshire give notice to the following:

Salting may (or should sometimes) be done because of steep hills
without being particularly busy
HCC-Cllr
I continue to be fascinated by Batchworth Lane which is I believe an
Unclassified Road, but the volume of traffic it carries is huge and
certainly merits classifying. I had an indication from Rob Smith
relatively recently that classifying it might not be the best way forward
….. but could you please confirm that it is on the primary salting route
and will be included as a ‘traffic sensitive street’.
Langley
Parish
Council
In those situations the designation of the route as traffic sensitive will not add any
restriction to works happening on the road. What it will allow is a higher degree of
information of works on the route especially during the winter, which may impact on
the winter gritting and which we can then allow for.
Batchworth Lane is on the primary salting route and therefore the proposal is to
make this part of the traffic sensitive network
If we ever have roadworks or other impediments in Batchworth Lane,
the local traffic goes pear-shaped. The alternatives are through the
centre of Northwood (in Hillingdon, but a shopping street with traffic
lights so very slow) or the private estate of Moor Park, or the joys of
West Watford. Chaos tends to reign in such circumstances.
This exercise seems a sensible one and I am wary of sounding as if
we expect special treatment in Langley which cant of course be given
to all , so we have to be practical.
I see the focus for our village will be on keeping the B656 clear 24
hours a day as this is our lifeline into any adjacent town. That said, we
have quite a range of people needing to get to the B656 by car or taxi
etc. Young children and the old/infirm struggle to get to vital services if
they cannot get a car up or down Village Street which is very steep.
We accept we need to be somewhat independent about treating our
road as it is not accessible to lorries etc. Last year I purchase a salt
spreader in case we had any serious snow issues which thankfully
didn’t arise. We didn’t get a delivery of salt to the usual bin and when
we do they often run out in a severe winter and don’t get topped up.
Given we now have this new approach for major roads, is there a
complementary facility for small hamlets like ours that won’t be on the
priority list? I need to ensure we can get a reliable service for the
more vulnerable residents who get anxious about being snowed in.
I appreciate any advice you can provide.
As to the summary of the streets covered under the review; I find it
quite difficult to assess whether the full length of the B656 from
Codicote to Hitchin is therefore designated as a 24 hour clear route or
not. The data is quiet detailed and fragmented to follow. It would be

of our precautionary treated network , we do endeavour as far as reasonably
practicable within Hertfordshire Winter operational plan to ensure this road is kept
clear .
With regard to refiling bins we will as resources allow during periods of severe
weather restock salt bins and we intend again this coming season to offer a limited
amount of free bagged salt to parish and recommended residents groups for use
on local roads .We do not allow further deployment of Grit bins onto the Highway

I am writing to you on behalf of the Anglian Joint Utilities Group who
represent approximately 30 utilities and their contractors’ on street
works matters in the Anglia Region. We welcome the opportunity to
respond to your consultation on the above Traffic Sensitive Street
review.
This authority would not agree with your comment in your letter “this classification
alone does not comply with Section 64 of NRSWA, Traffic Management Act 2004
and the Street Works (Registers, Notices, Directions and Designations) (England)
Regulations 2007”.
Section 64 of the NRSWA 1991 states that the street authority should provide the
criteria met for designating a street as traffic sensitive. For HCC’s proposed “Traffic
Sensitive Streets” network the criteria is the streets are pre-salted by the street
authority. This is in accordance with Section 16 (2) of “The Street Works (Registers,
Notices, Directions and Designations) (England) Regulations 2007” criteria (f) details
below:
We accept that the review has used the classification as described in
Mr Johnson’s letter of the 11th May 2015:
‘The streets are pre-salted by this authority, as part of our programme
of winter maintenance and therefore, meet the criteria for the
designation of these streets as traffic sensitive.’
(f)is designated by the local highway authority, as part of its winter maintenance
programme, as one requiring the treatment of any part of it with salt or other
chemicals, when low temperatures are expected, to prevent the formation of ice
However this classification alone does not comply with Section 64 of
NRSWA, Traffic Management Act 2004 and the Street Works
(Registers, Notices, Directions and Designations) (England)
Regulations 2007; the information to be made available by the street
authority in respect of each street for the time being designated by
them as traffic sensitive shall include:
It does not imply the highway authority should provide data on every other criteria
met from (a) to (i) of Section 16(2) from the Street Works (Registers, Notices,
Directions and Designations) (England) Regulations 2007”. We should provide
details of which criteria we are using to make the street “Traffic Sensitive” in the
current review we are making them “Traffic Sensitive” because they are designated
by HCC as part of its winter maintenance programme.
The current traffic sensitive network in the Hertfordshire Region is
estimated to be 18% and this proposal will take it to approximately
44%. The qualifying criteria applicable to each street as required by

sufficient detail to enable the street to be identified. This includes details of the site
name, town, location, USRN, road class, hierarchy and location description. We are
not proposing to provide any further data for the consultation.
Whilst it is noted in Mr Johnson’s letter ‘that the intent is not
necessarily to prevent occupation during traffic sensitive times this
classification implies that there is a high degree of importance’; we
believe this can be achieved through the current permit application
process and the ability to apply conditions and timing restrictions
according to the nature of the activity.
Once the appropriate street data is made available AJUG will be
pleased to respond accordingly.
Affinity
Water
Affinity Water accept that streets which are on your ‘gritting routes’
may, by that definition, warrant traffic sensitive status; but the times
and extent of the designation must comply with ‘The Street Works
(Registers, Notices, Directions and Designations) (England)
Regulations 2007’; the information to be made available by the street
authority in respect of each street for the time being designated by
them as traffic sensitive shall include:
We are not looking to prevent occupation at traffic sensitive times but are looking for
works promotors to be made aware these routes have a high degree of importance.
With the revised traffic sensitive network this should concentrate our efforts on the
most important routes in the county when dealing with permits. We would look for
this to improve the effectiveness of the existing East of England Permit Scheme. The
permit scheme will be another essential means of timing control for works on the
network.
Hertfordshire County Councils own programme of works time constraints will be no
different to other works promoters.
Section 64 of the NRSWA 1991 states that the street authority should provide the
criteria met for designating a street as traffic sensitive. For Hertfordshire County
Council’s proposed “Traffic Sensitive Streets” network the criteria is the streets are
pre-salted by the street authority. This is in accordance with Section 16 (2) of “The
Street Works (Registers, Notices, Directions and Designations) (England)
Regulations 2007” criteria (f).
It is our Primary Routes we are proposed to be traffic sensitive period 1 24hr Monday to Sunday. These are roads which form the links between the
most important traffic origins and destinations. These routes are the most
significant county ‘A’ roads on our network. This traffic sensitive time period
7
covers approximately 6% of our total network.
The list of streets provide for the consultation includes particulars of the street in
sufficient detail to enable the street to be identified. This includes details of the site
name, town, location, USRN, road class, hierarchy and location description.
We are not proposing to provide any additional data for the consultation. HCC
would encourage you to provide your response to the “Traffic Sensitive Streets”
consultation by 21st June 2015.
With this proposal that extends the traffic sensitive designation in
Hertfordshire by 26% and the request that we must respond on a route
by route basis; we should be provided with the appropriate level of
justification for the application of the proposed time bands.
It should also be noted in general that we have concerns that the
effectiveness of the existing East of England Permit Scheme is bought
into question as this should form the primary means of timing control
through accurate and specific site assessment supported by justifiable
condition requirements.
Furthermore, the proposal of extended levels of restriction on Band 1
and 2 routes across the county is another concern as this impact upon
the undertakers’ ability to execute their works outside of traffic
sensitive times. I would therefore also ask what Hertfordshire intend to
do, on these routes, with regards to their own programme of works?

East Herts
Council
I have collated feedback form other departments and would be grateful
if you record our response to your consultation as below:East Herts council has no objection to the proposal provided it does
not affect our ability to schedule ‘mobile works’ during the specified
hours on restricted carriageways. These are collection of refuse,
street cleansing and grounds maintenance where there is no
requirement for static traffic management.
We are interested to understand to what extent to which this proposed
classification of 47% of our streets as ‘traffic sensitive’ to some degree
might impact EHC work on the highway – ie Parking signs and notices.
In accordance with the East of England Permit Scheme there is no permit
requirement for mobile working. Any works of this nature will therefore, not be
affected by the revised traffic sensitive streets review. I would also, confirm the TSS
review will not impact on your own works that do not involve positive traffic
management i.e. lane closure, traffic signals or road closure.
I note your comment regarding using the winter maintenance routes as traffic
sensitive streets that are gritted solely because they are on a hill side and are
otherwise minor residential roads. This is true and in those situations the
designation of the route as traffic sensitive will not add any restriction to works
happening on the road. What it will allow is a higher degree of information of works
on the route especially during the winter, which may impact on the winter gritting and
which we can then allow for.
Under our Agency Agreement with HCC we maintain most parking
related signs and lines on the highway. We also lead in the
implementation of on-street resident permit parking schemes. I don’t
believe we ever ‘occupy’ a street when we do this. Our work tends to
be mobile in nature and does not require any form of road closure. We
have no objection provided that our would not be impeded by any
street’s designation as ‘sensitive’ under any of the three levels.
We would like to point out that using the winter maintenance routes
plan as traffic sensitive routes is not entirely reliable as there are a
number of roads in Period 3 that are gritted solely because they are on
a hill side and are otherwise minor residential roads.

Peter Linkson, Group Manager (Environmental Services).
1. The TSS review does not change the current gritting regime.
2. No there will be an increase from 67,100Km to 101,700Km.
3. The existing time periods do not match the proposed time periods so cannot be
compared.
Peter has asked if you could please answer the following queries
relating to the review?
Current TSS period is:
1. What is the effect of this proposal compared to the current gritting
regime in the Borough of Broxbourne?
2. Will the number of Traffic Sensitive Streets reduce in the Borough of
Broxbourne?
3. Will the aggregate miles of road in each road classification reduce in
the Borough of Broxbourne?
4. If there is a reduction of service proposed in the Borough of

I would also, confirm the details of the review have been presented to the Members
Advisory Group in August last year.
As previously mentioned period 1 is our Primary Route Network and will be traffic
sensitive - 24hr - Monday to Sunday. These are roads which form the links between
the most important traffic origins and destinations. These routes are the most
significant county ‘A’ roads on our network. This traffic sensitive time period covers
approximately 6% of our network.
Period 2 06:00 to 20:00 - Monday to Sunday are predominantly the Main
Distributors. These are the main roads which distribute traffic within towns, around
town centres and link town centres and main industrial areas to the Primary Route
Network. This traffic sensitive time period covers approximately 7% of our network.

As you can appreciate the consultation proposal is of some
significance to Affinity Water operations and we have been seeking
opinion both internally and externally and notwithstanding the below
was sent to you in error- may I propose the same question. Whilst the
link states that part of the topic group output was to review the TS
Streets designation – we have not been provided with the supporting
data as to why routes have been determined as falling into Bands 1 or
2 which are in the majority I believe already designated as TS under
the normal peak periods as defined in the regulations. Whilst they
may be key roads on the Herts network as already designated TS; to
state they are ‘gritting routes’ does not support the upgrade to the
designations proposed.
The existing Traffic Sensitive Streets network was implemented over 20 years ago
and based on traffic data at the time. With the various changes in legislation,
altering traffic and new development the network has changed considerably.
I am writing to you on behalf of the Anglian Water Services Ltd, we
welcome the opportunity to respond to your consultation on the above
Traffic Sensitive Street review
Anglian Water object to this proposal to introduce traffic sensitivity onto
existing streets due to a lack of data provided as stipulated in the
legislation.
Under Section 64 of NRSWA, Traffic Management Act 2004 and the
Street works (Registers, Notices, Directions and Designations)
(England)
Regulations 2007, the Highway Authority may designate certain
streets (or parts of streets) as "traffic-sensitive" if they meet specific
criteria, or by agreement with the majority of undertakers known to
have apparatus in the street concerned. The criteria set must meet
one of the following:
Your list of proposed traffic sensitive streets you have directed us to
does not say which criteria has been applied to each street and
therefore we are unable to either agree or challenge.
As stated in the consultation letter and our web site (Herts Direct) the criteria met for
designation in accordance with Section 64 of the NRSWA 1991, Traffic Management
Act 2004 and The Street Works (Registers, Notices, Directions and Designations)
(England) Regulations 2007” is criteria (f) as detailed below:

Affinity
Water
Thank you for providing a response to our “Traffic Sensitive Streets” review. Your
comments have been noted and considered when reviewing and making a
recommendation for the traffic sensitive streets network. We will be distributing the
summary of the consultation shortly.
Please find the response of Affinity Water to the consultation of the
proposed designation of Traffic Sensitive Streets within Hertfordshire
County Council.
The proposal put forward is not supported for our area of interest due
to the fact that under the legislation we do not believe that Herts CC
have met their obligation in providing a defined reason that stipulates a
street to be designated as traffic sensitive as under Section 16(2) and
the defining criteria under Section 16(3).
Under Section 64 of NRSWA, Traffic Management Act 2004 and the
Street works (Registers, Notices, Directions and Designations)
(England) Regulations 2007, the Highway Authority may designate
certain streets (or parts of streets) as "traffic-sensitive" if they meet
specific criteria as detailed in Section 16(2). The criteria for each street
set out must be evidenced to meet one of the following:
(i) The street is one on which at any time the Street Authority estimate
traffic flow to be greater than 500 vehicles per hour per lane of
carriageway, excluding bus or cycle lanes;
(ii) The street is a single carriageway two-way road, the carriageway of
which is less than 6.5 metres wide, having a total traffic flow of not less
than 600 vehicles per hour;
(iii) Traffic flow in both directions contains more than 25% heavy
commercial vehicles;
(iv) The street carries in both directions more than eight buses per
hour;
(v) The street is designated for pre-salting by the Street Authority as
part of its programme of winter maintenance;
(vi) The street is within 100 metres of a critical signalised junction,
gyratory or roundabout system;
(vii) The street, or that part of a street, has a pedestrian flow rate at
any time of at least 1300 persons per hour per metre width of footway;
(viii) The street is on a tourist route or within an area where
international, national, or significant major local events take place.
In addition, defined dates and times of the traffic sensitivity should also
be identified. We fail to see how this can be understood and provided
without sufficient analysis of volumetric data of traffic flows.

Hertfordshire County Council have completed the traffic sensitive streets review in
accordance with Section 64 of NRSWA 1991, Traffic Management Act 2004 and the
Street Works (Registers, Notices, Directions and Designations) (England)
Regulations 2007” and have met their obligation in defining a criteria.
Section 64 of the NRSWA 1991 states that the street authority should provide the
criteria met for designating a street as traffic sensitive. For Hertfordshire County
Council’s proposed “Traffic Sensitive Streets” network the criteria is the streets are
pre-salted by the street authority.
This is in accordance with Section 16 (2) of “The Street Works (Registers, Notices,
Directions and Designations) (England) Regulations 2007” criteria (f) details below:
(f)is designated by the local highway authority, as part of its winter maintenance
programme, as one requiring the treatment of any part of it with salt or other
chemicals, when low temperatures are expected, to prevent the formation of ice
We are using the winter maintenance network as this includes all A and B roads and
our major bus routes, outside schools, town centre’s and industrial areas. These
roads are considered important to the County Council and therefore, should be kept
clear for gritting and road works.
This will allow a higher degree of information of works on the route especially during
the winter, which may impact on the winter gritting.
For information on our gritting routes please follow the link below:
http://www.hertsdirect.org/services/transtreets/highways/hhonlineservices/saltingrout
es/
To confirm the rationale behind time periods 1 and 2 they are based on the network
hierarchy. Period 1 is our Primary Route Network which forms the links between the
most important traffic origins and destinations. These routes are the most significant
county ‘A’ roads on our network. This traffic sensitive time period covers
approximately 6% of our network.
Period 2 are predominantly our Main Distributors. These are the main roads which
distribute traffic within towns, around town centres and link town centres and main
industrial areas to the Primary Route Network. This traffic sensitive time period
Section 16(3) only allows the street authority to designate a street as
traffic sensitive for the times and on the dates when one or more of the
criteria apply. Therefore If the criteria was 16(2)(a) traffic flow greater
than 500 vehicles per hour – a designation cannot be made during on
any part of any day where this criteria is not satisfied.
Thus, assuming that HCC are only applying paragraph 16(2)(f)
designation as its criteria, this by its very nature, can only apply during
the period when winter maintenance is being carried out.
When assessing the times applied to band 1 & 2 roads, there is no
evidence to demonstrate that the streets are subject to traffic
sensitivity outside of normal traffic sensitive times. In fact our local
knowledge of these streets has in many cases identified that the
streets have very low traffic flows outside of normal traffic sensitive
times especially during the evenings and at weekends which poses the

The proposal put forward in respect of the above is not supported for
our area of interest due to the fact that under the legislation we believe
that Herts CC have failed to meet their obligation in providing a defined
reason that stipulates a street to be designated as traffic sensitive
under Section 16(2) and the defining criteria under Section 16(3).
Under Section 64 of NRSWA, TMA 2004 and the Street works
(Registers, Notices, Directions and Designations) (England)

streets (or parts of streets) as "traffic-sensitive" if they meet specific

Thank you for providing a response to our “Traffic Sensitive Streets” review. Your
comments have been noted and considered when reviewing and making a

summary of the consultation shortly.
Hertfordshire County Council have completed the traffic sensitive streets review in
accordance with Section 64 of NRSWA 1991, Traffic Management Act 2004 and the
Street Works (Registers, Notices, Directions and Designations) (England)
Regulations 2007” and have met their obligation in defining a criteria.
Section 64 of the NRSWA 1991 states that the street authority should provide the
must be evidenced to meet one of the following:
(i) The street is one on which at any time the Street Authority estimate
traffic flow to be greater than 500 vehicles per hour per lane of
carriageway, excluding bus or cycle lanes;
(ii) The street is a single carriageway two-way road, the carriageway of
which is less than 6.5 metres wide, having a total traffic flow of not less
than 600 vehicles per hour;
(iii) Traffic flow in both directions contains more than 25% heavy
commercial vehicles;
(iv) The street carries in both directions more than eight buses per
hour;
(v) The street is designated for pre-salting by the Street Authority as
part of its programme of winter maintenance;
(vi) The street is within 100 metres of a critical signalised junction,
gyratory or roundabout system;
(vii) The street, or that part of a street, has a pedestrian flow rate at
any time of at least 1300 persons per hour per metre width of footway;
(viii) The street is on a tourist route or within an area where
international, national, or significant major local events take place.
In addition, defined dates and times of the traffic sensitivity should also
be identified. We fail to see how this can be understood and provided
without sufficient analysis of volumetric data of traffic flows.
Section 16(3) only allows the street authority to designate a street as
traffic sensitive for the times and on the dates when one or more of the
criteria apply. Therefore If the criteria was 16(2)(a) traffic flow greater
than 500 vehicles per hour – a designation cannot be made during on
any part of any day where this criteria is not satisfied.
criteria met for designating a street as traffic sensitive. For Hertfordshire County
Council’s proposed “Traffic Sensitive Streets” network the criteria is the streets are
pre-salted by the street authority.
This is in accordance with Section 16 (2) of “The Street Works (Registers, Notices,
Directions and Designations) (England) Regulations 2007” criteria (f) details below:
(f)is designated by the local highway authority, as part of its winter maintenance
programme, as one requiring the treatment of any part of it with salt or other
chemicals, when low temperatures are expected, to prevent the formation of ice
We are using the winter maintenance network as this includes all A and B roads and
our major bus routes, outside schools, town centre’s and industrial areas. These
roads are considered important to the County Council and therefore, should be kept
clear for gritting and road works.
This will allow a higher degree of information of works on the route especially during
the winter, which may impact on the winter gritting.
For information on our gritting routes please follow the link below:

To confirm the rationale behind time periods 1 and 2 they are based on the network
hierarchy. Period 1 is our Primary Route Network which forms the links between the
most important traffic origins and destinations. These routes are the most significant
county ‘A’ roads on our network. This traffic sensitive time period covers
approximately 6% of our network.
Period 2 are predominantly our Main Distributors. These are the main roads which
distribute traffic within towns, around town centres and link town centres and main
industrial areas to the Primary Route Network. This traffic sensitive time period
covers approximately 7% of our network.
Following comments received from the consultation we will be revising period 1 from
24hr Monday to Sunday to 05:00 to 22:00 Monday to Sunday. This will ensure
utilities are able to carry out works outside traffic sensitive times.
Therefore on the assumption that Herts CC are only applying
paragraph 16(2)(f) designation as its criteria, this should only apply
during winter maintenance.
With the increase of the traffic sensitive streets network the income generated would
increase under the current permit fees. The overall income from a permit scheme
should not exceed the costs an authority incurs as a result of operating and
managing a scheme. As a result this authority will be reducing all Permit Fees by
10% to ensure the income remains broadly static.
When assessing the times applied to band 1 & 2 roads, there is no
evidence to demonstrate that the streets are subject to traffic
sensitivity outside of normal traffic sensitive times. In fact both ours
and most other utilities local knowledge of these streets has in many
cases identified that the streets have very low traffic flows outside of
normal traffic sensitive times, in particular during the evenings and at
weekends which poses the question as to why a twenty four hour
seven days a week designation on 6% of roads and a designation of
Streets on the attached spreadsheet will be designated as traffic sensitive on 3 rd
November 2015.
15
06:00 – 20:00 Monday to Sunday on a further 7% of roads is relevant.
Vodafone will be more than willing to discuss further or even support
the application if Herts CC are in a position to supply the supporting
documentation under the Freedom of Information Act to support the
determination of the above. We would also ask that supporting
documentation be provided for the determination of gritting routes and
traffic counts including dates of when they were last completed with
the relevant outputs to support sections 1,2,3,4 & 7
In conclusion, Vodafone would not be supporting the proposal under
Section 16(5) of the aforementioned regulations unless all of the above
criteria can be met.

Dear Mr Coomber
Consultation - Traffic Sensitive Street Review
The Anglian Joint Utilities Group has concerns with the proposals
outlined in your consultation document and therefore cannot support
them.
AJUG represents approximately 30 utility companies and their
contractors and each will respond individually to record their concerns.
AJUG consider that there is a lack of clarity as to how the criteria as
required under Section 64 of NRSWA, Traffic Management Act 2004
and the Street works (Registers, Notices, Directions and Designations)
(England) Regulations 2007 has been applied. Therefore AJUG has
forwarded this matter to HAUC England for review and NJUG who will
be raising the issue with the DFT direct.
In a communication dated 17th April to Affinity Water, Herts CC’s
stated:
The existing Traffic Sensitive Streets network was implemented over
20 years ago and based on traffic data at the time. With the various
changes in legislation, altering traffic and new development the

It is also important to note that even in an urban environment such as
London they have less restrictive time bands on their lane rental
network than those currently proposed by Herts CC.
Unless Herts CC can provided the criterion as required:
1. Section 16(3) only allows the street authority to designate a street
as traffic sensitive for the times and on the dates when one or more of
the criteria apply.
2. Section 16(2) (f) can only apply during the period when winter

certain streets (or parts of streets) as "traffic-sensitive" if they meet

set out must be evidenced to meet one of the following:
(i)
The street is one on which at any time the Street
Authority estimate traffic flow to be greater than 500 vehicles
per hour per lane of carriageway, excluding bus or cycle
lanes;
(ii)
The street is a single carriageway two-way road, the

Grid
Thank you for providing a response to our “Traffic Sensitive Streets” review. Your
comments have been noted and considered when reviewing and making a
recommendation for the traffic sensitive streets network. We will be distributing the
summary of the consultation shortly.
The National Grid response to the consultation on the proposed
changes to the designation of Traffic Sensitive Streets within
Hertfordshire is detailed below.
The proposal is not supported by National Grid because it is deemed
under the current legislation that Hertfordshire Highways Authority
have not met their obligation in providing a defined reason for
stipulating a street to be designated as traffic sensitive under Section
16(2) and the defining criteria under Section 16(3).
Under Section 64 of NRSWA, Traffic Management Act 2004 and the
Street works (Registers, Notices, Directions and Designations)
Hertfordshire County Council have completed the traffic sensitive streets review in
accordance with Section 64 of NRSWA 1991, Traffic Management Act 2004 and the

criteria met for designating a street as traffic sensitive. For Hertfordshire County
Council’s proposed “Traffic Sensitive Streets” network the criteria is the streets are

We are using the winter maintenance network as this includes all A and B roads and
our major bus routes, outside schools, town centre’s and industrial areas. These
roads are considered important to the County Council and therefore, should be kept
clear for gritting and road works.
This will allow a higher degree of information of works on the route especially during
the winter, which may impact on the winter gritting.

To confirm the rationale behind time periods 1 and 2 they are based on the network
hierarchy. Period 1 is our Primary Route Network which forms the links between the
most important traffic origins and destinations. These routes are the most significant
county ‘A’ roads on our network. This traffic sensitive time period covers
approximately 6% of our network.
Period 2 are predominantly our Main Distributors. These are the main roads which
distribute traffic within towns, around town centres and link town centres and main
industrial areas to the Primary Route Network. This traffic sensitive time period
covers approximately 7% of our network.
Following comments received from the consultation we will be revising period 1 from
24hr Monday to Sunday to 05:00 to 22:00 Monday to Sunday. This will ensure
utilities are able to carry out works outside traffic sensitive times.
With the increase of the traffic sensitive streets network the income generated would
increase under the current permit fees. The overall income from a permit scheme
should not exceed the costs an authority incurs as a result of operating and
managing a scheme. As a result this authority will be reducing all Permit Fees by
10% to ensure the income remains broadly static.
Streets on the attached spreadsheet will be designated as traffic sensitive on 3 rd
November 2015.

Summary
The consultation was sent to 212 representative organisations, with responses received from
19 of these. The majority of the comments received did not have objections to the proposal
for the revised traffic sensitive streets network.
There are 5 organisations which have concerns to the validity of the process and do not
support the changes to the traffic sensitive network. These relates to the lack of clarity to the
criteria under section 64 of NRSWA. They have requested the local authority provide details
of all criteria are met in appendix C.
Hertfordshire County Council are making the streets traffic sensitive in accordance with (f) as
they are on our winter maintenance route. As we are not using any other criteria the local
authority are not required to provide the additional data requested.
These are our key routes and are considered important to the authority for both winter
gritting and road works. It is essential to keep these routes clear of obstruction to reduce
congestion on the road network.
Following concerns from utilities and the ‘Joint Utilities Group’ the 24hr traffic sensitive
period 1 will be amended. This will allow works promotors to carry out work outside of traffic
sensitive times on these streets.
Recommendations
Following this consultation, Hertfordshire County Council recommend proceeding with the
proposed traffic sensitive street network making the following change to the scheme:
Period 1 changed to 05:00 to 22:00 Monday to Sunday
The designation will become valid on 3rd November 2015 as detailed on the attached
spreadsheet.
