Issue - meetings

The Board considered a report of the Strategic Director, Enterprise, Community and Resources, on the proposed installation of bus stops on Clifton Road, Runcorn.

The Board was advised that a request for the installation of a bus shelter had been received in May 2016. A period of consultation undertaken with residential properties resulted in two residents in support and two against. Following this, a further period of consultation was undertaken in respect of an additional bus stop across the road (as identified in Appendix 1). The report detailed the outcome of this further consultation.

It was noted that the Environment and Urban Renewal Policy and Performance Board had considered and supported the proposals, at its meeting held on 28 June 2017. However, since that meeting, the Council had received a complaint from those that objected to the initial installation, and as two of the complainants were Members of the Council, it was felt that the matter should be presented to the Executive Board for their further consideration.

RESOLVED: That the installation of bus shelters on Clifton Road, Runcorn, as identified in Appendix 1, be approved.
