DOUBLE yellow lines could be introduced outside a new drive-through coffee shop in a bid to stop queueing outside.

The newest Starbucks was opened at Reading Link Retail Park by franchisees 23.5 Degrees last month.

It has an entrance-only route from Rose Kiln Lane, with customers having to drive through the retail park’s car park to exit.

Reading Borough Council is consider painting double yellow lines at the new entrance to prevent queuing that could have an impact on Rose Kiln Lane.

Double yellow lines impose a ban on waiting at any time, with anyone caught being liable to pay a fine.

Prior to that, a consultation must take place ahead of any changes. If there are no objections, the council’s assistant director of legal services would be given the power to make the traffic regulation order (TRO) needed to establish the double yellow lines.

Reading Borough Council is also considering reducing the speed limit in Rose Kiln Lane from 40mph to 30mph between its junction with Berkeley Avenue and 29 Rose Kiln Lane.

The council’s transport programme manager said the speed restriction is necessary to enable the introduction of inbound and outbound bus stops.

Buses serving the inbound stop would have to stop in the road to allow passengers to leave and enter, which the officer said would require a 30mph speed limit for safety.

These bus stops would factor into the ‘Bus Rapid Transit’ network running along the A33 between Mereoak Park and Ride and Reading town centre.

A consultation would be needed. If there are no objections, the council’s assistant director of legal services would be given the power to make the TRO needed to reduce the speed limit.

Both the double yellow lines and speed reduction are set to be discussed at a meeting of the council’s traffic management sub-committee on Wednesday, June 14.
