Decision Maker: Cabinet Member for Climate and Sustainable Travel
Decision status: Approved
Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: Yes
Purpose:
To agree the shortlist items to be taken
forward to preliminary design and engagement for the Egerton Road
and Cotswold Road Liveable Neighbourhood Area.
Decision:
(1) to proceed with the shortlist of interventions
set out in paragraph 3.8 of the report:
• Controlled crossing near Chantry Mead junction; and
• Reduction in the junction at Chantry Mead Road.
And 3.9 of the report:
· Traffic calming measures along Cotswold Road and
Hillside Road;
• Traffic calming measures along Egerton Road;
• Heavy vehicle restrictions along Cotswold Road; and
• Controlled crossing near Hillside Road.
Now taking them forward to preliminary design and engagement.
(2) To note that the proposed shortlist is based on work done with the community to first identify their needs and then co-design potential solutions to address those needs, as summarised in Appendix A – AECOM Co-Design Workshop Report 2 (Prioritisation).
(3) To note that the proposed shortlist was next subject to technical review, both in terms of alignment with the Liveable Neighbourhoods strategy and other factos such as cost, practicalities and timelines, as summarised in Appendix B – AECOM Recommendation Report.
(4) To note that the proposed shortlist was then referenced back to
the applications put forward by ward councillors in Spring
2021 to ensure that the package of interventions satisfied the
aims of the original proposal.
(5) To note the opportunity to ‘fast track’ shortlisted interventions
where they are non-contentious or already well supported, and
either statutory consultation is not required due to the nature
of the proposed intervention, or implementation could proceed
as a trial under an experimental Traffic Regulation Order
(ETRO) or be implemented under a 21-Day Notice (see also
section 4).
(6) To note that the ability to proceed is subject to funding being
available for the design, engagement, consultation and
implementation work required as a result of this decision.
Reasons for the decision:
To enable the project to maintain its current timetable and deliver maximum benefit and value to the community as soon as possible.
Alternative options considered:
None.
