Agenda item

Kendal Close –

It is still intended to ask Housing to dedicate this route as a public right of way leading through to the towpath and the Slough Basin, however there are various works required to bring the path into a fit state for the public to use.  It’s been decided to wait for Housing to do these works before dedication.  JW showed members the artwork design for the mural to be located on the wall opposite the path across a green space owned by Housing.  Reactions were varied.  JW explained that no objections had been received to the bright vibrant design, but that the other mural intended to be along the path would be more muted. 

TH hoped that a future planning gain for the basin development would include improvements to this link path.

Prescott Road –

JW explained that this Gating Order consultation was required solely to deal with the continual fly tipping along a private road in an industrial area. 

Members were informed that pedestrians and cyclists would have unrestricted access.  The question of what kind of gate is intended was raised; JW would investigate and inform members.

Members’ consensus was that there were no objections to this Gating Order provided that access for pedestrians including wheelchair users was maintained.

Rossiter Close –

JW informed the meeting that the Council had decided not to make a Gating Order for this alleyway at the current time.  Monitoring of the situation would continue though and if there is any change in the situation, the decision would be revisited.

Members welcomed the news that no Gating Order would be made.
