The Cabinet Member for Regeneration and Social Housing introduced a report on the Council’s third Local Implementation Plan (LIP3), which set out the Council’s long-term strategy for delivering improvements to the transport network and services in support of the Borough Manifesto ambitions for delivering inclusive, sustainable growth in Barking and Dagenham.

A draft LIP3 was approved by Cabinet on 16 October 2018 (Minute 42 referred) and submitted to Transport for London (TfL) for comment on 2 November. A five-week period of consultation with a range of statutory and local stakeholders then ensued which ended on 7 December.

(i)  Note the minor changes to the draft Third Local Implementation Plan (LIP3) following the formal consultation period; and

(ii)  Approve the final draft version of the LIP3 for submission to Transport for London and sign-off by the Mayor of London.
