Report of the Director of the Built Environment

The Committee received the final report relating to the International Comparative Study which had examined international traffic management best practice and benchmarked the City of London Corporation’s approach against 11 other cities.

Members noted that the study found that the City Corporation and Transport for London’s approaches to traffic management and reduction were in line with international best practice. In some aspects, such as improving the experience of walking and cycling, congestion charging and public transport provision, the City and London were seen as global leaders.

The report made a series of recommendations for future transport policies, projects

and programmes which would help inform the development of the City of London Transport Strategy and Local Implementation Plan.

In response to a question concerning the regulation of cyclists, officers advised that this could be looked at.

RESOLVED – That the report be noted and a copy of the study itself be included on the agenda for the next meeting.
