1. NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Council of the London Borough of Waltham Forest on 22nd October 2020 made the above-mentioned Orders under sections 9 and 10 of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984, as amended ('the 1984 Act'). The Orders will come into force on 2nd November 2020 and may continue in force for up to 18 months.
2. The general effect of the Orders will be, by way of an experiment, to:-(a) introduce a new 'pedestrian and cycle zone' in the vicinity of Buxton School E11, comprising the streets or parts of streets listed in column (2) of the Schedule to this Notice. This pedestrian and cycle zone will operate at the times listed in column (3) of the Schedule to this Notice - although in practice it is anticipated that they will only operate during these hours in school term-time, when the traffic signs are showing, and will be complemented by a 'no motor vehicles' prohibition, which will operate at all times and in both directions at the junction of Woodhouse Road E11 with Cann Hall Road E11; (b) remove an existing free limited stay parking place and reduce in length an existing 'LPN' permit holders' parking place on the north side of Cazenove Road E17 at its junction with Chingford Road E17 and introduce 'at any time' waiting restrictions - to extend from the western kerb-line of Chingford Road to the eastern boundary of No. 2 Cazenove Road (approx. 32 metres); and (c) reduce in length an existing limited stay and 'pay by phone' parking place on the north side of Vernon Road E11 at the side of No. 729 High Road Leytonstone, and introduce 'at any time' waiting restrictions - to extend from the western boundary of No. 729a High Road Leytonstone to the eastern boundary of No. 2 Vernon Road (approx. 8 metres).
3. All motor vehicles except permit holders, will be prohibited from entering the pedestrian and cycle zone during their ours of operation. Permits allowing vehicles to enter the pedestrian and cycle zone will be available to residents of and employees of businesses and organisations at premises located within or only accessible from the pedestrian and cycle zone, and to disabled person's badge holders who have a bona fide reason to enter or leave a vehicle in the pedestrian and cycle zone, by application to the Council. Any vehicle that is already within the pedestrian and cycle zone prior to its commencement of operation will be permitted to leave. Further exemptions will apply to: Emergency service vehicles; Council Waste Services; other key Council services (e.g. Social Services); Mobility Services vehicles; and Public service vehicles (e.g. Community Transport, Dial-a-Ride).
4. The Orders are intended to create a pleasant environment that feels safer in the immediate vicinity of a school, discourage travelling to school by car in cases where alternative means of travel are available, and encourage walking, scooting and cycling to school, thereby achieving positive health outcomes for the school community. For more information about the scheme in general and how to apply for permits please visit for following Council website

6. Where it appears necessary for certain purposes, an authorised officer of the Council may, in pursuance of section 10(2) of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984, modify or suspend any provision of the experimental Traffic Orders while they are in force.
7. The Council will be considering in due course whether the provisions of the experimental Traffic Orders should be continued in force indefinitely by means of permanent Traffic Orders made under sections 6, 45, 46 and 124 of and Part IV of Schedule 9 to the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984. Any person may object to the making of the permanent Orders for the purpose of such indefinite continuation within a period of six months beginning with the day on which the experimental Orders come into force or, if the Orders are varied by another Order or modified pursuant to section 10(2) of the 1984 Act, beginning with the day on which the variation or modification or the latest variation or modification came into force. Any such objection must be made in writing and must state the grounds on which it is made and be sent to: Traffic Orders, Highways, Low Hall, Argall Avenue, London, E10 7AS, or by emailing: traffic.scheme@walthamforest.
quoting reference T43(20) - School Streets - Buxton School region - November 2020. Any objection may be communicated to, or be seen by, other persons who may be affected.
8. If any person wishes to question the validity of the Order or of any of its provisions on the grounds that they are not within the powers conferred by the 1984 Act, or that any requirement of that Act or any instrument made under that Act has not been complied with, that person may, within 6 weeks from the date on which the Order is made, apply for the purpose to the High Court.
Dated 22nd October 2020 Mr. K. Valavan
