Minutes:
A representative of the Corporate Director for Place Management and Regeneration submitted a report (copies of which had been circulated) setting out the findings of a consultation exercise and seeking approval to the implementation of highway footpath proposals and the associated Traffic Regulation Orders for schemes at the:-
- A560 Stockport Road/M60 Junction 2 ‘Roscoe’s’ Roundabout;
- A560 Stockport Road (Roscoe’s Roundabout to Edgeley Road).
- Abney Hall Park Path and Path Links to Manchester Road.
- A560 Stockport Road/High Street/Manchester Road Junction.
It was reported that the Council had been granted funding from the Department for Transport to provide a package of measures on the A560 corridor to provide congestion relief, enhance access to employment, improve bus reliability, safety and facilitate active travel.
The following comments were made/issues raised:-
- The deletion of the proposed cycleway on Stockport Road from the scheme was welcomed.
- The proposal to operate the street lighting on the shared-use path through Abney Hall Park at a low illuminance was welcomed as concerns had been raised over the impact that the lighting might otherwise have on the feeding habits of nocturnal creatures. This would have the effect of the lighting hardly coming on at all in the summer.
- A Member enquired about what disruptions to the traffic flow would take place whilst the works were taking place. Traffic Services would be working closely with the Streetworks team in order to minimise disruption and would keep Councillors and members of the public informed.
· A Member requested a report back to the Area Committee prior to the commencement of the works.
RESOLVED – That the Cabinet Member for Communities and Housing be recommended to approve the measures contained within the report/developed drawings contained in Appendix E and the statutory legal advertising of the Traffic Regulation Orders contained in Appendix 1 and the sections of footpath with permissive cycling rights to be dedicated and subject to no objections being received within twenty one days from the advertisement date, the Orders and dedication of footpaths with permissive cycling rights contained in Appendix 1 be made.

Minutes:
A representative of the Corporate Director for Place Management and Regeneration submitted a report (copies of which had been circulated) setting out the findings of a consultation exercise and seeking approval to the implementation of highway footpath proposals and the associated Traffic Regulation Orders for schemes at the:-
- A560 Stockport Road/M60 Junction 2 ‘Roscoe’s’ Roundabout;
- A560 Stockport Road (‘Roscoe’s Roundabout to Edgeley Road).
- Abney Hall Park Path and Path Links to Manchester Road;
- A560 Stockport Road/High Street/Manchester Road Junction.
It was reported that the Council had been granted funding from the Department for Transport to provide a package of measures on the A560 corridor to provide congestion relief, enhance access to employment, improve bus reliability, safety and facilitate active travel.
The following comments were made/issues raised:-
- The set of proposals were very ambitious and difficult for members of the public to visualise in their entirety.
- With regard to those proposals that affected Abney Hall Park, it was important that all the information relating to the ecological survey, quality of the landscape, trees and wetland was made available to members of the public on the Council’s website and in local libraries.
- The improvements to the access and landscape quality within Abney Hall Park were welcomed.
- With regard to Scheme 2 (Roscoe’s Roundabout to Edgeley Road), the traffic modelling did not take account of motorists turning right into Tesco Express as they travelled along Edgeley Road from the direction of Roscoe’s roundabout. This caused delays in the right hand lane of the traffic on the road.
RESOLVED – (1) That the Cabinet Member for Communities and Housing be recommended to approve the measures contained within the report/developed drawings contained in Appendix E and the statutory legal advertising of the Traffic Regulation Orders contained in Appendix 1 and the sections of footpath with permissive cycling rights to be dedicated and subject to no objections being received within twenty one days from the advertisement date, the Orders and dedication of footpaths with permissive cycling rights contained in Appendix 1 be made.
(2) That the Corporate Director for Place Management and Regeneration be requested to provide Members of the Area Committee with the final details of the proposals that affect Abney Hall Park relating to the ecological survey, quality of the landscape, trees and wetland and that this also be placed on the Council’s website and in local libraries.
