RBWM 22/9/2026 – Traffic, parking and catapults

Posted on September 15, 2026 by ecwlarcombe

The next RBWM Council Meeting is scheduled for 22 September 2026.  There are 13 Public Questions on the RBWM Meeting Agenda.  I have submitted two Member Questions and one Motion as follows:

Councillor Larcombe will ask the following question of Councillor Hill, Cabinet Member for Highways, Customer Services, Libraries & IT:

o) Similar to other areas, Datchet, Horton and Wraysbury have well known vehicle, traffic, and parking issues. What action do you intend to take to reduce or prevent vehicle parking on pavements/verges, airport parking, and underage motorcyclists?

p) Councillor Larcombe will ask the following question of Councillor Del Campo, Cabinet Member for Housing Services, Housing Delivery & Health:

How effective has the Public Space Protection Order (PSPO) on catapults been?

The Motion on Notice reads as follows:

e) By Councillor Larcombe

Although the Public Space Protection Order (PSPO) on catapult use is fairly new, it has raised public awareness of the issues and actively demonstrated public and Councillor support for the original PSPO. There has been insufficient time to determine the effectiveness of the current PSPO, but it has created an opportunity for improved enforcement. Extending the current PSPO across the entire borough is a logical and cost-effective step forwards that clearly demonstrates the council’s position against environmental crime.

This Council:  i) Agrees to ask Cabinet to hold a consultation on the proposal to extend the existing PSPO catapult ban across the borough.

DATCHET

The name "Datchet" is thought to be Celtic in origin, and the last part may be related to cet ("wood"). In the Domesday Book it is called "Daceta".lla. Datchet is first mentioned between 990 and 994, when King Ethelred made small grants of land here.

HORTON

The village name "Horton" is a common one in England. It is Old English in origin and derives from the two words horu 'dirt' and tūn 'settlement, farm, estate', presumably meaning 'farm on muddy soil'.In the Domesday Book of 1086 it was recorded as Hortune.

WRAYSBURY

The village name was traditionally spelt Wyrardisbury; it is Anglo Saxon in origin and means 'Wïgrǣd's fort'. Its name is recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 as Wirecesberie and as Wiredesbur in 1195. The name is seen again as Wyrardesbury in 1422.
