Agenda item

Report of the Commissioner of Police (copy attached).

The Committee received a report of the Commissioner updating Members on road traffic casualties and collisions and measures to mitigate these occurrences.

The Commander of Operations informed Members that the Force continued to work closely with the City of London Corporation to reduce the number of casualties and collisions. This included support for the City’s Road Danger Reduction Plan to introduce a City wide 20mph speed restriction. Further work included the aim to establish a formal partnership working group – the Roads Policing Strategic Group.

The Lead Member for Road Safety stated the report had been a joint effort, and had provided input on this and many areas of road safety and policing.

A Member expressed concern over the number of vehicles in the City which did not possess insurance and licences.
