Purpose

The purpose of the report was to gain approval for the
funding allocations and to outline the delivery progress of the approved
schemes.

 

Decision

 

ORDERED that Executive:

 

1.   
Approve the continued allocation of CRSTS
funding across both Highways Maintenance and Integrated Transport workstreams,
noting that 75% of schemes were currently on programme (RAG: Green) and a
further 25% were experiencing minor delays (RAG: Amber) but remained
deliverable within the current or next financial year

2.   
Approve the implementation of mitigation
measures for schemes at risk of delay or underspend — particularly those in the
Carriageways, Structures & Bridges, and Stainton Way Phase 2 schemes — to
ensure continued alignment with CRSTS grant conditions, avoid clawback risk,
and maintain the Council’s ability to meet statutory obligations.

 

AGREED that Executive

 

1.   
Note the progress to date on the delivery
of the 2025/26 Capital Programme funded through the £4.154m City Region
Sustainable Transport Settlement (CRSTS) grant, as detailed in Appendices 1 and
1A of the report.

2.   
Note ongoing programme management
flexibilities, allowing officers to reprofile or reallocate approved funds
where appropriate to support accelerated delivery of shovel-ready schemes or
respond to emerging priorities.
