21/02/2023 - Shortlist for the Egerton Road and Cotswold Road Liveable Neighbourhood Area (WL)

(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.
