Report of the Town Clerk.

The Sub-Committee received the current list of Outstanding References and discussed the following matters arising:

Skateboarding

The Chairman advised that a City-wide review of skateboarding would be considered at the next Sub-Committee meeting in September 2015. The Director of Transportation and Public Realm added that references would be made to the trial at St Pauls but the review would also seek to identify measures that might be utilised elsewhere in the City of London. Members of staff at the City Corporation who were also skateboarders had so far been consulted and wider consultation with local skateboarders would be carried out.

UKPMS Carriageway Condition

The Assistant Highways Director advised that a briefing session for Members to aid in the understanding of the formula for the condition index had been scheduled for 14:00 – 16:00 on 31 July 2015.

Eastern City Cluster

A briefing note summarising discussions held at a recent Board meeting for the Sculpture of the City would be circulated to Members before the next Sub-Committee meeting.

20mph Speed Limit

Details of enforcement and average speeds resulting from the 20MPH limit would be available shortly and a one-year review of its implementation would be reported to the next Sub-Committee meeting in September 2015.

Cycling

In response to a Member’s question, the City of London Police Sergeant advised that the recent accident near Bank Station was still under investigation. An initial hearing regarding a collision on Ludgate Hill was being heard at Court on 13 July 2015 to set a subsequent Court case and a person had been charged in relation to a third incident but a decision had yet to be made on whether the case would progress to Court.

RESOLVED – That the Outstanding References be noted.
