RESOLVED – That the list of outstanding references be noted.

Parking for Motorcycles

The Sub-Committee noted that this had moved into the 2016/17 work programme and included in the restructured City Transportation teams work plan and asked that this not be allowed to slip.

Collisions and Casualties

The CoLP reported that the provisional data for all casualties in the 2015 Calendar year was very similar to the overall figure for 2014 (387 casualties compared to 394 in 2014). 

There was however a significant reduction in the number of people reported as being killed or seriously injured (1 Fatal and 42 Serious in 2015 compared to 4 Fatal and 51 Seriously injured in 2014). 

Within that KSI figure was a 52% reduction in Cyclist KSI casualties (1 Fatal and 10 Serious compared to 3 Fatal and 20 Serious in 2014), and a reduction in Motorcyclist KSI casualties of 33% (6 to 9 in 2014).  

Overall Pedestrian casualties at 116 remained similar to 117 in 2014.

Overall Cyclist casualties remained similar at 138 compared to 140 in 2014.

Overall Motorcyclist casualties at 53 were significantly down compared to 80 in 2014.

Provisional figures for January and February 2016 suggested the above trends were continuing.

The Committee asked if this information could be circulated as a written document in future.

Swan Pier

A member of the Committee expressed concern at the length of time being taken to make the structure safe and was advised that a report would be coming to the next meeting.
