Report of the City Surveyor.

The Committee received a report of the City Surveyor containing details of the two public escalator/lifts where the service was less than 95%.

The City Surveyor highlighted that the Millennium Bridge Inclinator remained a challenge. She added that a full specification for the maintenance of the lift had now been worked up alongside TfL and that a tender document would now be prepared and put out to tender shortly. The City Surveyor also clarified that recent breakdowns of the Inclinator had occurred at weekends but, under the current specification, repairs could not be effected at weekends or bank holidays – this would be addressed within the new specification.

Finally, the City Surveyor made Members aware that, at present, the Inclinator’s compactors were situated at the wrong end of the lift door. Further details around this and any possible remedy would be brought back to the Committee.
