Decision details

Purpose of Report: To agree a methodology for evaluating and prioritising the list of pedestrian crossing improvement requests. The subsequent prioritised list will then be used to influence which sites are investigated, and implemented as appropriate, from future years' Transport Capital Programmes.

The Executive Member is asked to agree the recommendation as outlined in the report.

Resolved:  That the staged process approach proposed in Option 1, be adopted to deal with the 2016/17 budget allocation for pedestrian crossing improvements using a new methodology to evaluate and prioritise pedestrian crossing requests for future financial years.

Reason:     To ensure the 2016/17 budget allocation is spent on delivering improvements for local residents and that the list of outstanding pedestrian crossing requests can be assessed taking into account appropriate factors.
