Paul Fishwick introduced the item which set out the draft programme for 2013/14. Paul referred to the petition on the Chobham Road crossing presented earlier on in the agenda and confirmed that he would liaise with the petitioner over the consultation on this item.

Mrs Smith suggested the the Bisley to Knaphill cycle route could follow Warbury Lane and Barrs Lane.  Paul agreed to look at this as an additional possibility, but the other route was required for the link to Knaphill.

In response to Cllr Wilson, Paul confirmed that he had written approval from the Highways Agency that they were happy with the proposals for the bridge over the motorway on the A245 raised in the safety audit.

It was confirmed that the community funding was agreed in the original bid, and this would continue to be focussed on Sheerwater and Maybury.
