Decision

The Portfolio Holder for Transport, Highways and Road Safety approved the progress of the scheme to detailed design and implementation. He also agreed that the cost of the scheme should be met from the 2024/25 TfL budget for bus priority measures.

The Portfolio Holder agreed to delegate authority to the Director of Environment and Public Protection to make minor changes to the schemes in response to operational requirements.

Reasons for the decision

The scheme proposals include new sections of bus lane, junction improvements to benefit pedestrian safety, and a new controlled crossing to also improve safety. The proposals are in line with the objectives of the Borough’s Local Implementation Plan.
