Minutes:
The Committee gave consideration to the proposed process for delivering the Local Transport Plan (LTP) in conjunction with the Sustainable Community Strategy (SCS) and the Local Development Framework. It also highlighted the draft engagement strategy prepared to support the LTP elements.
The Committee noted the issues outlined in sections 11.5 and 11.6 of the report, which would need to be resolved by Members in order to develop a realistic, high quality strategy for LTP3 to cover the next 15 years.
Members made the following comments:
With regard to the long term strategy, it was agreed that the strategic approach for integrated transport, maintenance and major schemes was of significant importance and should therefore be brought back to the Committee for detailed consideration.
With regard to the Ward Councillor Priority schemes for 2010, it was agreed that the full list should be brought to the Committee for consideration as the cold weather had not only had an impact on the budget allocation but had caused some roads to deteriorate further.
RESOLVED
That subject to the comments highlighted above, the report be noted.
