Agenda item

JW advised that she had attended a meeting with Toby Evans, Ian Houghton and Dan Jenkins, Senior Consultant Development and Regeneration, Atkins.  Possible improvements had been identified which included a cycle hire scheme between the railway stations and a surfaced pathway through  Fenner Brockway to link with Whittaker Road and Littlebrook Avenue.  The off road route from Pentland Road to Wentworth Avenue across Kennedy Park was discussed and it was thought that this was a good candidate for improvement.  Dan Jenkins had advised that at present SEGRO was in the process of resolving technical disagreements and these needed to be resolved before specific schemes could be considered.  It was thought that the applicant could be asked to contribute a sum of the money towards certain pedestrian/cycle schemes and the detail would be covered when the funding was received.  JW was awaiting further information from the Consultant.

Agreed  –   That the current position be noted and that an update be brought to the next meeting in January 2010.  Action JW
