Minutes:

The Executive Member considered a report, which set out the funding sources for the City Strategy Capital Programme together with the proposed schemes to be delivered in 2011/12.

 

Councillor Ayre made representations, as the Ward member, in relation to a residents survey undertaken in the Stockton Lane area in relation to potholes and speed enforcement on this road. He understood that engineering works could not take place until capital funding was available however as work was in progress on Stockton Lane he requested that these issues could be addressed at the same time.

 

Officers confirmed that speed management was a priority and that this issue would be examined.

 

The Executive Member reported receipt of late comments from Councillor Merrett which he confirmed would be passed to Officers for further consideration.

 

The Executive Member referred to the of priority order of schemes based on vehicle speeds and confirmed that it was even more important that the best possible use was made of the limited resources with works being undertaken where there was a proven accident record. Overall the programme was a more focused approach to transport investment, which continued to encourage alternatives to car use.
