Issue - meetings

The Cabinet Member for Environment introduced a report on the proposed Highways Investment Programme for 2012/13 and 2013/14.

The Cabinet Member advised that the £6m programme would build on the significant improvements that had been delivered by the Council’s £22m investment in the Borough’s roads since 2009 and would be focussed on those roads that had been identified as being in the most urgent need of reconstruction or repair.

Cabinet agreed:

  (i)  The allocation of £6 million to deliver priority highway maintenance works during 2012/13 and 2013/14 to the carriageways listed in Appendix A to the report; and

  (ii)  To authorise the Corporate Director of Housing and Environment, in consultation with the Cabinet Member for Environment, to amend the priority list if other roads in the Borough deteriorated to such an extent as to be considered appropriate for inclusion.
