Below is a list of all our consultations. Some may be 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.
As part of the annual Safer Routes to School programme Roberts Primary School was identified for a scheme to include as part of the Council's 20mph School Zone initiative/policy an advisory 20mph school limit/zone.
This measure should have the desired effect of reducing vehicle speeds and encouraging a more responsible driving attitude whilst passing the school entrance located along Deepdale Lane. These measures will also compliment/match those which are present/existing along Robert Street for that entrance.
These provisional proposals are shown in more detail on the attached drawing.
As part of Dudley’s road safety programme, Brierley Hill Road, Brierley Hill was identified as a priority location for intervention. This is to improve pedestrian safety.
This location has been identified following a survey of existing pedestrian demand including vulnerable road users.
The following measures are being proposed:
New pedestrian refuge with reflective bollards, tactile paving, and dropped kerbs either side.
New centre hatching on each approach to the refuge and refresh existing markings.
Revise SLOW markings to warn drivers of approaching hazard.
Please provide comments by Monday 16th February 2026.
As part of the Dudley’s Speed management scheme programme, Auckland Road, Wordsley and Rangeways Road Kingswinford was identified as a priority route for intervention. This is to address the evidence of excessive speeding.
The following measures are being proposed:
Provide centre hatching along Auckland Road / Rangeways Road with narrower running lanes to reduce vehicular speeds.
Build-out junctions and move Give-way markings out to provide better visibility from side roads.
Improve existing narrowings with physical measures.
New warning signs with SLOW markings to warn drivers of approaching hazards.
Please provide comments by Friday 2nd January 2026.
As part of the Dudley’s Speed management scheme programme, Wolverhampton Road, Sedgley was identified as a priority route for intervention. This is to address the personal injury collisions and evidence of excessive speeding.
Proposed measures include:
Implementing central hatching along Wolverhampton Road with narrow running lanes to help reduce vehicular speeds.
Improved pedestrian side road crossing facilities.
Moving Give-way markings further out to provide better visibility from the side roads.
Refreshing existing highway restrictions.
Refreshed SLOW markings to warn drivers of approaching hazards.
New traffic islands with reflective bollards to highlight physical features and pedestrian crossing points.
Please provide any comments no later than Friday, 21st November 2025.
Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council, as part of the low carbon agenda relating to transport, is engaged in the Office for Low Emission Vehicle funded On Street Residential Charge point Scheme to create an electric vehicle charge point network across the borough. This project is to encourage the move to electric vehicles which should provide a cleaner environment.
Part of the project is to provide on street charging points on the streets where off street charging facilities are not available. The stay is restricted to 6 hours, no return in 6 hours, 6am to 6pm all days, while charging/topping up batteries, primarily aimed at residents and their visitors in the area.
The project is a trial and therefore an Experimental Traffic Regulation Order (ETRO) has been used to introduce the electric charging places and the use of the bay will be monitored.

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
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.
