Report of the Executive Director, Environment.

The Committee received a report of the Executive Director Environment updating Members on progress with delivering the City of London Transport Strategy during Quarter 3 of 2021/22 (October – December 2021).

A Member noted that the report made reference to the Beech Street Zero Emission Experiment and requested an update from Officers on this. Officers reported that this had been discussed at the last meeting of the Streets and Walkways Sub-Committee and that local Ward Members would soon be receiving a written update on the experiment. They went on to report that they had taken the decision to delay the consultation that was originally planned for the end of 2021 due to the reintroduction of COVID restrictions at this time. It was now envisaged that a new round of consultation would commence immediately after the City-wide elections before the matter was brought back to the Committee for a decision as to next steps in July 2022.

RESOLVED – That Members note the report.
