Why have Peak Hour loading and waiting restrictions?

 

Peak Hour loading and waiting restrictions help keep traffic flowing.

 

Congestion is now recognised as one of the key factors that affects not only the smooth flow of transport, but also the ability of the local economy to grow. Most local congestion is seen at the peak periods on weekdays, and car traffic contributes to this problem the most. It is clear that over the past thirty years, traffic conditions have changed considerably.

 

The economic regeneration of the city, and South Yorkshire as a whole, is expected to bring with it further increases in traffic.
