Decision details

That a feasibility study for a central bi-directional cycle route for Victoria Avenue is commenced, ready to bid for funding when appropriate future funding streams are announced;

officers commence the detailed design and seek to deliver the pedestrian only improvement scheme as soon as practicable and subject to the outcome of the TRO process; and

the TRO processes for both scheme options commence as soon as practicable.

Delivery of pedestrian only phase is not contingent on gaining extra funding, therefore can be delivered on site as soon as the detailed design and tender phases are completed.
Feasibility study of the potential central bi-directional way will enable the potential scheme to be de-risked and costed; if deliverable this can be developed to a bid ready status in readiness for future funding bid options.
