A) Bank Area Enhancement Strategy

Your Committee seeks approval for the adoption of the Bank Area Enhancement Strategy which sets out the City’s vision for road danger reduction and transportation and public realm improvements in the bank area over the next 5-10 years. It provides a framework for ensuring that works are co-ordinated and improvements are prioritised to make the best use of available funds. A separately printed and circulated report has been submitted thereon.

A copy of the Bank Area Enhancement Strategy has been made available in the Members’ Reading Room and we recommend its adoption.

B) City of London Parking Service Contracts

Your Committees have considered and approved a proposal concerning the contracts for the provision of the City of London Corporation’s parking service and we seek approval to the principle of dividing the tendering of parking related functions into two lots: on-street and off-street and for the re-tendering of on-street parking and for a new contract start date for the off-street contract. We are also seeking approval for the extension of the current Airport Parking Company of America (APCOA) contract for the operation of the coach park and six car parks and the extension of the Vinci Park contracts for on-street parking, vehicle clamping and removal and cash collection to enable tendering for the new method to start at the same time.

We submit a printed and circulated report thereon and recommend approval thereof.
