MAIDSTONE BOROUGH COUNCIL

STRATEGIC PLANNING, SUSTAINABILITY AND TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE

9 JANUARY 2018

REFERENCE FROM POLICY AND RESOURCES COMMITTEE

 

STRATEGIC PLAN 2015-20, 2018-19 REFRESH

At its meeting on 13 December 2017 the Policy and Resources Committee considered the Report of the Strategic Plan 2015-20, 2018-19 Refresh.

 

During the debate, the Committee discussed the wording under the priority area of ‘Securing Improvements to the Transport Infrastructure for our Borough’. The Committee highlighted that it was difficult to get around the Borough by any mode of transport in peak hours, not just by car. However as this priority area was owned by the Strategic Planning, Sustainability and Transportation Committee it was appropriate to ask this Committee to consider changing the wording for this priority area.

 

RECOMMENDED:

 

That the Strategic Planning, Sustainability and Transportation Committee considers removing reference to ‘by car’ in the phrase ‘We do however recognise that travelling in and around the Borough by car during peak periods can be difficult’.
