HIGHWAYS UPDATE [EXECUTIVE FUNCTION - FOR DECISION]

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: Yes

Decision:

That the Local Committee [Epsom & Ewell] agreed:

 

(i)       To authorise the Area Highway Manager, in consultation with the Chairman and Vice Chairman, to allocate Committee’s Highways revenue and capital funding to suitable and beneficial activities and projects, once the details of additional revenue funding has been confirmed;

(ii)      To authorise the Area Highway Manager, in consultation with the Chairman, Vice Chairman, Divisional Member and the local community, to finalise the detailed design for the West Park Speed Limit scheme, advertise the necessary Legal Orders, and if there are no significant objections to make the necessary Legal Orders and arrange for the scheme to be implemented;

(iii)    Authorise the Area Highway Manager in consultation with the Chairman, Vice Chairman, and relevant Divisional Member(s) to undertake all necessary procedures to deliver the agreed programmes.

 

Reasons:  Committee’s programme of Highways investment for 2018-19 had been agreed by Committee in November 2017.  Significant additional revenue funding has now been allocated to the Local Committee, but the details of this additional funding have not yet been confirmed.  To be able to invest Committee’s Highways revenue and capital funding in year, it is essential to allocate funds to specific activities and projects as soon as possible.

 

The West Park Speed Limit scheme requires authorisation for Legal Orders to be able to implement the scheme.

 

Committee is asked to provide the necessary authorisation to deliver its programmes of work in consultation with the Chairman, Vice Chairman and relevant Divisional Member without the need to revert to the Committee as a whole.
