Minutes:

The Sub Committee received a report of the Deputy Chief Executive (Place) that sought approval to undertake the statutory consultation on the revocation of the two taxi stands outside Southend Hospital on Prittlewell Chase and the installation of a single taxi stand on Prittlewell Chase. The new taxi stand would be of equal capacity as the two stands proposed for revocation. The purpose of this proposal would enable the bus stops outside the Hospital to be moved to the most western Hospital entrance on Prittlewell Chase, allowing users of the bus stops at the Hospital to mount and dismount from the buses safely at busy/peak times.

 

Resolved:-

 

That the statutory consultation process be undertaken on the revocation of the two existing taxi stands on Prittlewell Chase and the installation of one taxi stand on Prittlewell Chase which would extend from the end of the zebra crossing zig zags opposite the propertied numbered 218 – 220 Prittlewell Chase heading eastwards for a distance of 78m.
