NO waiting rules on a road beside Commonweal School could be varied.

Council traffic chiefs have launched a consultation on the plans.

If approved, it will mean the time during which cars are unable to wait along the west side of The Mall directly opposite the main school building is moved from 7.30am-4.30pm to 8am-5pm.

Swindon Borough Council said the changes were being brought in as a result of parking, access and visibility problems along The Mall in peak times.

The consultation will run until October 19. For more, visit: www.swindon.gov.uk/trafficregulations.
