Decision details

The Local Committee (Reigate & Banstead) agreed:

(i)    To note the project content.

(ii)   To approve the project to be the subject of consultation during June/July 2015.

(ii)      To delegate authority to the Area Highways Manager in consultation with the Chairman, Vice Chairman and Electoral Division Members covered by the project to agree the consultation material.

Reason:

To ensure that the Local Committee are kept informed, the Local Committee is asked to note the progress made so far with the Greater Redhill Sustainable Transport Package.

Due to the tight timescales for delivery, a six week consultation period has been tentatively arranged to enable the results of the consultation to be presented to the meeting of this committee on 14 September to enable works to commence during the autumn of 2015 (on National Cycle Route 21).

The project will also require a number of approvals from this committee for example allowing cycling on widened footways and the advertisement of notices for the installation of toucan crossings and certain traffic orders.

However, these are currently in development and form part of the design process and will be presented to a later meeting of this committee.
