Issue - meetings

This report presents a draft revised strategic cycling network and prioritised list of strategic cycle schemes for consideration, and if approved, adoption by the council.  Once adopted the list would be used to inform the future years’ cycling infrastructure component of the transport capital programmes.

RESOLVED:                That Option B, to adopt a more up to date and evidence-based network and scheme prioritisation method with future schemes better prioritised against set criteria be agreed.

REASON:                     To help achieve an effective future cycling network, to ensure future developments take into account and contribute towards it, and to shape future Transport Capital Programmes.       

The Cabinet Member considered a report which presented him with a draft revised strategic cycling network and prioritised list of strategic cycle schemes for consideration and adoption by the Council.

Officers informed the Cabinet Member of the omission of the James Street Link Road Phase 2 cycle scheme from the original Annex B, to their report. This was subsequently attached to the original agenda, which was republished after the meeting.

RESOLVED:                That Option B, to adopt a more up to date and evidence-based network and scheme prioritisation method with future schemes better prioritised against set criteria, be approved.

REASON:                     To help achieve an effective future cycling network, to ensure future developments take into account and contribute towards it, and to shape future Transport Capital Programmes.
