Decision:
The Cabinet Committee received a report of the Executive Director (Neighbourhoods and Environment) concerning the possible extension of the 20mph zone along Eastern Esplanade and the introduction of average speed camera enforcement.
The Cabinet Committee noted the views of the Traffic Regulations Working Party that the scheme should cover the entire seafront eastwards from Marine Parade including Eastern Esplanade, Thorpe Esplanade, B1016 and Ness Road. It should also incorporate the introduction of pedestrian crossing facilities as discussed at its meeting on 24th February 2020 (Minute 851 of Cabinet Committee refers).
Resolved:-
That further monitoring of traffic speeds and accidents in Eastern Esplanade be undertaken and that a feasibility report with recommendations, including the identification of appropriate locations for the introduction of appropriate formalised pedestrian crossings, whether signal controlled or otherwise, be submitted to the Traffic Regulations Working Party and Cabinet Committee for consideration in 6 months.
