Below is a list of all our consultations. Some maybe ongoing, and some may have ended. The Traffic and Road Safety department want to hear your views and will enter details of their plans, background information and how to have your say.
Residents, councillors, MPs and council departments have raised concerns regarding some existing restrictions which need removing or altering to reflect current circumstances across the borough.
As part of Dudley Council's commitment to the safe movement of traffic (including pedestrians), various restrictions and revocations are proposed on the roads included in the proposed Orders listed below to address these concerns.
Any letters of objection and all written comments with respect to the proposed order should be emailed to traffic.consultation@dudley.gov.uk or addressed to Traffic Group Manager - Traffic Management and Road Safety, Dudley MBC, Lister Road Depot, Netherton, Dudley, DY2 8JW, stating the grounds on which they are made and should be received by no later than 14 March 2025.
A new zebra crossing facility is being proposed along the B4186 South Road, Stourbridge, in close proximity to the mini-roundabout junction with A451 Worcester Street and Norton Road. This is to help improve pedestrian links and to allow safer crossing of the B4186.
This scheme is part of this year's programme for Pedestrian Facilities 2024/25.
Details of the proposals are shown on the attached plan.
If you have any comments you wish to make, including any support that you may have for the scheme, you can either call on 01384 812594 or email shakil.younis@dudley.gov.uk by no later than Friday, 21 February 2025.
What is a School Street?
School Streets transform roads to create a better environment for children to walk, cycle and wheel to school.
When a School Street is in operation, the road temporarily becomes a Pedestrian and Cycle Zone, at school drop-off and pick-up times. By temporarily closing the road to motor vehicles at the start and end of the school day, School Streets help by:
Reducing traffic outside the school, which reduces emissions and makes the air around the school cleaner at peak times for children
Making it safer to walk, cycle, scoot, and wheel to school. Children will benefit from increased physical activity on their journey to and from school
Reducing traffic congestion and parking problems outside the school and reducing road danger
Dudley Council is inviting residents and businesses to take part in a Black Country consultation regarding proposed transport schemes. Black Country Transport (BCT) has secured funding for the schemes, which aim to maximise travel options on the A461 corridor, between Dudley, Brierley Hill and Amblecote.
Parking restrictions require a Traffic Regulation Order and are installed to improve road safety and reduce congestion. View the Traffic Regulation Orders via our online map, including links to car park tariffs and limited waiting restriction times.
