Report of the Town Clerk.

The Committee received a report of the Town Clerk detailing outstanding actions since their last meeting.

Updates were provided as follows:

Ludgate Circus

The Transportation and Public Realm Director reported that he and the Deputy Chairman would be meeting with TfL on this matter on 30^th November 2018. He added that TfL had informed the City Corporation that the signal timing review had progressed well and was substantially complete. The City were now therefore pressing for a date when it would be released.  The Scoot installation was scheduled for the New Year and Officers were requesting confirmation of a target date for this.

He concluded by stating that, unfortunately, TfL had declined to fund the agreed survey due to financial constraints. However, the City Corporation had decided to undertake the survey itself which was due to commence next week. A report on the results was expected to be available in mid-December 2018.

Blackfriars Bridge Underpass

The Chairman reported that he proposed to now remove this issue from the Committee’s list. It was suggested that, given that the underpass was still in a poor state, the matter be referred to the Streets and Walkways Sub Committee to keep track of until such time as urgent safety works were progressed.

RESOLVED – That the report be noted.
