Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: Yes
That the Local Committee [Elmbridge] agreed to:
i Re-allocated £25,000
from the parking surplus, which had previously been specifically
allocated to cycling related projects, to develop ITS schemes
relating to any mode of transport;
ii Approve the proposed LSR
programme for next Financial Year 2020-21 described in paragraph
2.2.2 and Table 5;
iii Authorise the Area Highway
Manager, in consultation with the Chairman, Vice Chairman, and
relevant Divisional Members, to amend the 2020-21 capital LSR
programme as appropriate when the 2020-21 budgets have been
confirmed;
iv Authorise the Area Highway
Manager to advertise the legal notice for a NO ENTRY restriction at
the bus gate leading from Burwood Road into Pleasant Place, and for
any objections to be considered by the Area Highway Manager in
consultation with the Chairman, Vice Chairman, and Divisional
Member;
v Authorise the Area Highway
Manager to apply to Elmbridge Borough Council for CIL funding to
construct a new cycle route along Grotto Road between Oatlands
Drive and Marlborough Drive, Weybridge, subject to consultation
with local members and Elmbridge Borough Council;
vi Authorise the Area Highway
Manager to apply to Elmbridge Borough Council for CIL funding to
construct a new road safety scheme in Ember Lane, Esher / Thames
Ditton, subject to consultation with local members and Surrey
Police;
vii 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: Recommendations are made to facilitate development of Committee’s 2020-21 Highways programmes, while at the same time ensuring that the Chairman, Vice Chairman and relevant Divisional Members are fully and appropriately involved in any detailed considerations.
The bus gate leading from Burwood Road into Pleasant Place is not well respected; it is hoped that compliance may be improved by providing a simple NO ENTRY sign.
The feasibility studies for two schemes have now been completed. These schemes are now ready for CIL applications, subject to consultation with local members and other interested parties.
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.
