RECORD OF OFFICER EXECUTIVE DECISION

 

 

Date of Decision:

 

30th March 2023

Decision Maker:

(Including Job Title)

 

Paul Woodcock, Strategic Director Regeneration and Environment.

Specific Delegation:

(If any)

 

In accordance with the South Yorkshire Local Transport Plan, and other policy documents, the discharge of any executive function in connection with transport policies and programmes - the implementation of any determination of the Cabinet Member and the discharge of any function of a regulatory nature.

Brief Description of Decision:

 

 

Approval of the draft Rotherham Cycling Strategy Delivery Plan for provision of the Council’s cycling and active travel programme of work and improvement schemes.

Reasons for the Decision:

 

 

In January 2022 Cabinet approved the adoption of the Rotherham Cycling Strategy, following which an objective was included in the Council’s “Year Ahead Plan” to finalise a delivery plan for the approved cycling strategy.

Details of alternative options considered and rejected:

 

Following the adoption of the Rotherham Cycling Strategy in January 2022 the Council could proceed to delivery of its cycling programmes and investment schemes without a delivery plan.  This would still result in achievement of the strategy’s objectives but risks one or more projects falling behind or not being prioritised in a timely manner. This is not the recommended option.

Conflicts of interest declared by any Executive Member consulted by the decision maker which relates to the decision:

None.

Dispensations Granted:

(If any)

 

None.

Reports or parts of reports considered

I certify that this is a true record of the executive decision in relation to the approval of the Rotherham Cycling Strategy Delivery Plan.
