Item 8

Contact: Jim Soutar, ext 6049 email: [email protected]

1. Summary

1.1 The following decision is sought:

    That the Project Appraisal to implement measures in the village to improve pedestrian security, at an estimated cost of £160,000, be approved, subject to Council's approval of the 2007/08 budget in February 2007.

2. Reason

2.1 The scheme will improve security for local residents and enhance the highway environment in an environmentally sensitive area.

3. Other Options Considered and Rejected

3.1 The narrow overall width of the highway (carriageway plus footways) through the centre of the village means there is no realistic alternative to the proposed measures designed to address the priority issue agreed with Selborne Parish Council's Traffic Sub Group.

4. Conflicts of Interest Declared by the Decision Maker or Other Executive Member Consulted - None.

5. Dispensation granted by the Standards Committee - None.

6. Reason(s) for the Matter being dealt with if Urgent - None.
