Report ES19097

The report set out proposals to install new cycle and scooter parking facilities at twenty four schools in fifteen wards across the Borough, funded by TfL’s Cycle Parking Implementation Plan.

In response to a question around why only two secondary schools were involved, the Transport Planning Manager reported that there were more challenges in getting secondary schools to engage and the initiative had been school led.

RESOLVED that the Portfolio Holder be recommended to

(1) Approve the proposed cycle and scooter parking and installation in schools.

(2) Approve spending of £135k from the TfL Cycle Parking Implementation Fund allocated for this project.

Noting that this was the last meeting that the Transport Manager would attend prior to taking up his new position at TfL, the Chairman and the Committee thanked Alexander Baldwin-Smith for his commitment to the Council and the support and advice he had provided to the Committee.
