AHWB/064/2017 - Provision of zebra crossing at Melton Road, Sprotbrough

Decision Maker: Director of People

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: No

Purpose:

The Sprotbrough Ward has Section 106 monies of £11,000 from the Roe Croft Close/Stone Cross Drive development. Planning reference 11/03071/OUT. The wording in the planning agreement states 'for the creation of public open space or for the enhancement of an area of existing public open space within the ward. Elected Members, the Stronger Communities Team and the Parish Council have for some time been supportive of a zebra crossing being installed at this location. It is seen as a way to encourage increased footfall and better utilisation of a public open space area in close proximity to Melton Road by achieving a safer method of access across a busy road.

Decision:

1. To approve the provision of a zebra crossing at Melton Road, Sprotbrough part funded by £11,000 of Section 106 monies from Planning Reference 11/03071/OUT.
2. To approve the scheme delivery inclusive of contract management/tender/contract award.
3. To include the scheme in the Adults and Communities Capital Programme.

Alternative options considered:

No other options considered. Should the scheme not be delivered the area would remain without a formal crossing which is a clear desire of many local residents the Parish and Ward Members.
