Report of the Director of the Built Environment.

This report has been considered by the Culture, Heritage and Libraries Committee, which approved Option 2(a), and the Streets and Walkways Sub Committee.

Members considered a report of the Director of the Built Environment regarding Special Events on the Highway in March 2018, noting that the report had been considered by the Culture, Heritage and Libraries Committee and the Streets and Walkways Sub Committee, both of which had recommended Option 2a within the report.

Several Members were heard in support of the proposal for a London Half Marathon by Tommy’s. It was felt that Option 2a alone did not reflect the positive support that the City wished to afford the Tommy’s proposal and therefore Members should adopt both Options 1 and 2a.

RESOLVED, that Members

·         Approve the Tommy’s event (Option 1)

·         Recommend to TfL that they reject London Marathon’s application.
