Minutes:

The Deputy Leader and Portfolio Holder for Climate Change, Environment and Transport introduced the report which summarised the public consultation results and the subsequent amendments to the Shropshire Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plan (LCWIP). The report sought approval for the amended Shropshire LCWIP to progress to adoption as Council policy.

 

Members welcomed the report and it was suggested that it could be strengthened with KPIs, especially with regards to public health.

 

Members queried the integration of the plan with other plans, and the capacity and staffing to support the plan.

 

Disappointment was expressed that the rural areas appeared to have been neglected and that the concentration was on the main urban areas.

 

It was confirmed that the plan had been widely consulted on and member briefings had also taken place.

That Cabinet:

 

1.     Noted the public consultation results and subsequent amendments made to the draft Shropshire LCWIP, and;
