Decision details

Key Dec 12/13-6 SEMMMS A6 to Manchester Airport Relief Road

Decision Maker: Cabinet

Decision status: Item Deferred

Is Key decision?: Yes

Is subject to call in?: Yes

Decisions:

Consideration was given to a report on the progress of this scheme work on which had been ongoing since 2009 to develop the details of its first phase.  The various documents required by the DfT to support the submission of the business case were now complete and ready to submitted by Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council as the schemes promoters on behalf of the Greater Manchester Combined Authority. 

 

The Strategic Director for Places and Organisational Capacity provided an oral update on the position.  Particular reference was made to redesigned but not yet finalised junction improvements north of Poynton as, ultimately, these would form the first phase of the Poynton Relief Road.  In addition it was reported that a number of off line mitigation measures, on roads in the area where traffic was forecast to increase as a result of the scheme, were also still the subject of continuing discussions.  Cabinet was advised that a meeting was due to be held with the Leader of Stockport Council to discuss these points further and that the funding allocations were due to be considered by Manchester City Council at the meeting of its Cabinet at the end of July. 

 

Members were asked to amend a key date on page 96 of the agenda to show that the submission of the planning application and publication of the draft Orders would be in Spring 2013, not 2012 as stated.

 

In view of the ongoing discussions, and the planned meeting with Stockport Council, it was agreed that the report be deferred and brought back to be dealt with at the earliest opportunity and, if necessary, that an urgent or extraordinary cabinet meeting be convened.

 

RESOLVED

 

That the report be deferred and brought back to be dealt with at the earliest opportunity and, if necessary, that an urgent or extraordinary Cabinet meeting be convened.
