Problem Solving 

As a Parish Council we understand that Hampton is a complex area as there are numerous parties working within Hampton with different responsibilities. This page will help to outline the specific responsibilities - however, if you are ever unsure please contact the Parish Clerk for further information or assistance. 

 Road Adoptions 

 Road adoptions are carried out by the Highways department of Peterborough City Council. The principal reason that a road has not yet been adopted is that the road may require additional maintenance by the developers prior to adoption or the road by Peterborough City Council. 
If you require any additional information regarding the status of an unadopted road please contact https://www.peterborough.gov.uk/council/planning-and-development/highway-control

Parking Issues

Traffic Regulation Orders

The Parish Council with the help of Ward Councillors and Peterborough City Council have implemented numerous Traffic Regulation Orders (TRO's) within Hampton. The double yellow lines can be found in busy areas such as the Hampton center's , schools and to improve pedestrian and driver visibility they are also on many of the junctions within Hampton.

The TRO's are monitored by Traffic Wardens from Peterborough City Council. If you require attendance for a TRO you can contact parking.services@peterborough.gov.uk  or contact the Clerk at parishoffice@hamptonpc.co.uk

Parking on Grass Verges

It is not an offence to park a motor vehicle, with the exemption of a HGV, on a grass verge or pavement unless it is causing an obstruction or there is a Traffic Regulation Order (TRO) in place prohibiting it. 

If there is an obstruction of the road or pavement this is the responsibility of the police to investigate and enforce.

20mph Speed Limit

All of Hampton Vale and Hargate is within a 20mph zone and the Parish Council have installed data capturing Vehicle activated speeds signs to remind drivers of the speed limit. If the information captured shows evidence of continual speeding this can be used as evidence to request that speed capturing cameras are installed.

Litter in Hampton 

The Parish Council contract two Lengthsmen who work within the Parish. 
Dan & John the Lengthsmen cover the residential streets in Hampton on a two weekly route schedule.  
If you have a particular problem with litter please ring the Parish office on 01733 942761 or email parishoffice@hamptonpc.co.uk and let us know what the problem is and the area affected. We can then divert the lengthmen from their normal routes to take care of the problem. This however may extend the route, and in busy periods such as school holidays the routes may take up to three weeks to complete.
The lengthsmen are also available to remove dead birds, animals, sharps and broken glass.
