5. Active Travel Crossing Request Evaluation and Prioritisation Methodology (10:27am)
Resolved:
i. To approve the adoption of the revised evaluation and prioritisation methodology and delegate authority to the Director of City Development to commence the initial stage assessment of all requested sites, both current and historic. This will enable the backlog of requests, which have built up over the previous few years.
Reason: The revised methodology is in line with current guidance and gives greater priority to need and future usage whilst addressing existing casualty issues and perception of danger of potential users. The methodology also enables prioritisation of specific requests for dropped kerb crossings to be undertaken independently of other crossings recognising this has its own separate budget.
ii. To delegate authority to the Director of City Development to implement the active travel crossing programme and dropped kerb programme annually based on the outcomes of the revised evaluation and prioritisation process and the budgets allocated.
Reason: To ensure there are no additional delays in implementing the two programmes each year once the Transport capital programme has been approved at Executive level.
6. City Centre Anti-Terrorism Traffic Regulation Order (10:37am)
Resolved: To approve Option 1 – authorising the Director of City Development or his delegated officer to carry statutory consultation and advertisement of the proposal to make an Anti-Terrorism Traffic Regulation Order (ATTRO) for the city centre.
Reason: This option is in line with the decision made at the Executive decision session in October 2023 for development and consultation of an ATTRO. This option will allow the council the Council to progress the matter and undertake the consultation following on from the development of the ATTRO.
