Issue - meetings

To consider a report of the Corporate Director for Place Management and Regeneration.

The report details a proposal for a zebra crossing on Commercial Road in Hazel Grove previously submitted as a concept at Stepping Hill Area Committee on 6th March 2018 which was subsequently approved. The plans also include six pedestrian dropped crossings along Commercial Road and the upgrade of two existing bus stops which forms part of S106 development contributions from the former Royal Oak Public House. The report recommends the approval of the proposed measures and the associated amendments to traffic regulation orders.

The Area Committee is recommended to give approval to the provision of a zebra crossing, pedestrian dropped crossings and bus stop upgrades and to give approval to the legal advertising of the associated Traffic Regulation Orders and, subject to the receipt of no objections within 21 days of the advertisement date, the subsequent making of the orders at a total cost of £85,000 to be funded by a combination of the A6 MARR CMM budget and Section 106 monies.
