Minutes:
The Mayor welcomed Dame Sarah Storey, the SCR Active Travel Commissioner, to the meeting.
Dame Sarah introduced a report setting out the Design Principles for Active Travel Infrastructure to be adopted for SCR investment, and to set out arrangements for the delivery of the DfT’s Emergency Active Travel Fund Tranche 2 in the Sheffield City Region.
It was noted the proposal is for the MCA to adopt high level Design Principles. We are awaiting detailed national infrastructure design advice from the DfT which will be issued this summer. It is proposed that the SCR standards meet or exceed those from DfT as schemes are funded mainly through Government funding, including the Transforming Cities Fund, which must meet their minimum criteria.
It was confirmed the SCR Transport Board endorsed this proposal at its meeting on the 3rd July.
RESOLVED, that the Authority:
Agrees delegated authority to be given to the Head of Paid Service in consultation with the s73 and Monitoring Officer to enter into legal agreements with the four Local Authorities for their respective schemes for Phase 2 schemes.
