Special Events on the Highway

Report of the Director of the Built Environment.

 

NB: This report is also due to be considered by the Culture, Heritage and Libraries Committee and the Streets and Walkways Sub-Committee.

Minutes:

The Committee considered a report of the Director of the Built Environment outlining the major special events planned in the City in 2018. 

 

Reference was made to the Culture Mile event and whilst Members were supportive, concern was expressed about the need to close Beech Street for a period of six days to accommodate it. It was, therefore, suggested that the organisers be advised that whilst the City Corporation was supportive of the event, the prolonged closure of the road could not be accommodated and should be reduced.

 

RESOLVED – That the events as set out in Appendix 5 of the report be supported subject to the length of the road closure associated with the Culture Mile event being reduced.
