Herefordshire Council has issued a flurry of proposals on limiting speeds and parking around the county.
One proposed order addresses an anomaly that the residential streets of The Pastures, The Shires and The Dales, off Hoarwithy Road in Lower Bullingham , Hereford lie just outside the city’s 30mph zone.
The proposal is for the whole length of the streets to have a 30mph restriction "by virtue of (having) street lighting", while the 30mph stretch of Hoarwithy Road would be extended to just south of the railway bridge.

Meanwhile a proposed order would ban waiting and loading at any time on the C1268 Straight Mile in Rotherwas , between the two roundabout junctions with Vincent Carey Road and with Chapel Road, and also on the A438 Whitecross Road at the junctions with Guildford Street and Oxford Street - which are already double yellow lined.
A daytime no waiting restriction is also proposed for a short stretch of the north side of Whitecross Road opposite Guildford Road and east of the Shell petrol station.

In Lugwardine east of the city, an order proposes introducing no waiting and loading restrictions at several junctions between side streets and the main A438 through the village, as well as a no waiting restriction along the southern part of Traherne Close.
Lastly, a slew of double yellows are proposed in Leominster – on a short stretch of the B4361 Hereford Road near the primary school as well as in parts of Coningsby Road, Eaton Close, Hampton Gardens, Lower Leys Way, Pinsley Road, St Botolph’s Green and Vicarage Street.
Consultation on all five proposed orders ends on October 16, ahead of final decisions on whether to implement them.
