Decision:

Approve the undertaking of stakeholder
consultation on the proposed Safer Roads Foundation project along

boundary with Doncaster.
 

Reasons for the Decision:

To ensure timely delivery of the A6022 Safer
Roads Foundation scheme in alignment with agreed project milestones
and client expectations, supporting the overall objective of
improving road safety and maintaining stakeholder confidence.
 

Details of alternative options considered and
rejected:

The Council may choose to develop and
implement the proposals without consultation.
 
Choosing not to consult would mean missing the
opportunity to gather input from residents, business owners, and
Ward Councillors. This could result in a final design that does not
reflect local needs or preferences.
 
Not undertaking consultation may also be
perceived as a lack of openness in decision-making
