Agenda item

To receive the report of the Maintenance & Environmental Services Officer.

NOTE:  As this is a H&S issue, the Town Clerk will, under her delegation, deal with the recommendations if deemed urgent and in the interests of public safety.

The  Committee received the report of the Maintenance & Environmental Services Officer.

There was support for the proposal but concerns remained about vehicles adhering to the speed limit. The cycle crossing sign was also considered to be a positive step. Discussion ensued about the positive impact of signage and it was up to the council to ensure that it had met its responsibility as landowner and from a health & safety perspective.

Resolved:

1. To approve the purchase and installation of two “5mph” signs and posts.

2. To approve the additional installation of a warning sign for “Cycle Route Ahead”; and

3. To Delegate to officers the responsibility of assessing and possibly removing part of the hedge to the right side of the junction exiting West Witney.
