EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

1) Summary of Decision Area

1.1. This report seeks approval for the proposed Capital Programme sub programmes for 2009/10 to support the County Council's priorities of developing safe communities, ensuring access to services and protecting local distinctiveness and diversity.

2) Issues Covered in Report

2.1. This report sets out the proposed transport, maintenance and bridges, waste and environmental sub programmes. Some elements of the transport sub programmes (minor works and minor traffic management works) were considered at the spring round of Hampshire Action Teams' (HAT) meetings.

2.2. A reduced level of funding available for the Quality of Place Sub Programme in 2010/11 has resulted in a stretched programme between 2008/09 and 2009/10.

3) Recommendations

It is recommended that:

3.1. The following proposed 2009/10 Environment Capital Programme sub programmes schemes and allocations set out in Appendices 1 to 8 of this report be approved:

(i) Capital Maintenance Programme £28,402,000 (Appendix 1) including:

· Bridge Strengthening and Maintenance Programme, £4,234,000 (Appendix 1a); and

· Major Maintenance - Winchester High Street, £1,500,000;

(ii) Casualty Reduction Programme £3,000,000 (Appendix 2);

(iii) Safer Routes to School Programme £1,000,000 (Appendix 3);

(iv) Minor Traffic Management Programme £520,000 (Appendix 4);

(v) Minor Works (under £25,000 each) total £311,000 (Appendix 5);

(vi) Environmental programmes £387,000 (Appendix 6);

(vii) Community Transport Programme £250,000;

(viii) Quality Bus Partnership Programme £100,000 (Appendix 7); and

(ix) Waste Management Programme £5,066,000 (Appendix 8).

MAIN REPORT

1) Contextual Information

1.1. The Capital Programme 2009/10 to 2011/12 was approved by the Executive Member for Environment on 20 January 2009, which included allocations for sub programmes. This report provides details of these programmes for approval for 2009/10.

2) Key Issues

2.1. This report sets out the proposed transport, maintenance and bridges, waste and quality of place sub programmes.

2.2. Following the impact of the economic downturn and the consequential loss of capital receipts to support the locally resourced capital programme, existing capital approvals for two years have been spread over three years. This has been managed within the Environment Department through reducing funding made available for the Quality of Place, Waste and Transport capital programmes (including some of the sub programmes set out in this paper).

3) Proposed Sub Programmes

Capital Maintenance Programme (£28,402,000)

3.1. The Highway Maintenance programme is funded from the revenue and capital programmes. Revenue funding typically covers reactive repairs, cyclic maintenance, winter salting, etc. The capital element provides structural maintenance of roads and bridges and larger, planned schemes and is funded through the Local Transport Plan (LTP) (Government grant and borrowing) and local resources. Appendix 1 provides more detail of the financially significant elements.

Bridge Strengthening and Maintenance Programme (£4,234,000)

3.2. Included within the capital maintenance programme, bridge strengthening and maintenance and covers the following four key areas:

(i) Structural maintenance;

(ii) Road restraint systems (eg crash barriers);

(iii) Strengthening/replacements; and

(iv) Design, assessment and feasibility.

The proposed programme is set out in more detail in Appendix 1a.

3.3. The Structural maintenance programme is mainly identified and prioritised using bridge inspection data, in accordance with the national Code of Practice. The programme includes ongoing contracts such as painting and expansion joint maintenance and also accident damage remedial works and footbridge maintenance.

3.4. The Road Restraint System schemes are prioritised with national standards and the highest scoring sites are jointly agreed with Network Rail.

3.5. The strengthening/replacement schemes are identified from the assessment programme for 40 tonne vehicles and inspections. There is no nationally agreed prioritisation process, but that followed by the County Council is in line with other local authorities.

3.6. Also included is a programme of Design, Assessment and Feasibility which is generally linked to the above projects. It includes other initiatives instigated by Government, such as assessment for heavy loads, which is a rolling programme prioritised to `A' roads and heavy load routes.

Major Maintenance Scheme £2,200,000 (£1,500,000 Maintenance, £500,000 Winchester City Council, £200,000 Developer Contributions)

3.7. Included within the capital maintenance programme is the Winchester High Street major maintenance project. The proposed refurbishment will include resurfacing the High Street and side streets in a high quality, attractive, safe and durable material and improving the sub-structure where conditions are poor. A project appraisal was approved by the Executive Member for Policy and Resources on 11 September 2008. Work is expected to start in the autumn.

Casualty Reduction Programme (£3,000,000 Local Transport Plan)

3.8. This long established engineering programme has played a major part in improving the safety record on Hampshire's roads over the last decade or more. The programme is completely based on analysis of accident statistics and the site characteristics of locations with poor accident records.

3.9. The Casualty Reduction Programme is orientated to maintaining the good performance to date towards meeting the Local Area Authority (LAA) Casualty Reduction Targets. The Killed and Seriously Injured (KSI) target is also a priority in the Corporate Improvement Plan. The proposed programme will help to prevent an upturn and maintain the current downward trend in KSI numbers. It concentrates on identifying potential savings for the most effective split between the four elements of the programme, eg a weighting on fatal and serious accidents/casualties is given as a priority and the Casualty Reduction Partnership is based on investigating fatal and potential fatal accidents only. This type of casualty has reduced since the programme was formed in April 2003 as a partnership with the Police.

3.10. The breakdown of the Casualty Reduction budget, as proposed, is considered appropriate to maximise the best rates of return and achieve the largest reduction in KSIs possible.

3.11. Appendix 2 provides a summary of the breakdown and sets out the individual schemes for surface dressing (part of Carriageway Surface Treatment programme) and a provisional Low Cost programme, which is currently under consultation.

3.12. The `reactive' casualty reduction partnership element of this programme is implemented during the year on a site by site basis following fatal, or near fatal accidents. Similarly, the `other' and `retexturing' programmes are reactive to skid testing results, and by their nature it is not possible to set out a programme for either in advance.

3.13. The capital safety audit programme will be brought forward for approval in June within the first quarter monitoring report. The pre-patching programme for 2010/11 sites will not be available until November as surveys will be undertaken during this year.

Safer Routes to School Programme (£1,000,000 LTP and £157,700 Developer Contributions)

3.14. In response to Central Government guidance for every school to have a School Travel Plan (STP) by the end of the decade, the Environment Department is striving to meet that target by working closely with the schools and helping them develop and implement their STPs. In March 2009, 398 or 66% of schools (398 out of 601) had approved STPs. A further 42 travel plans are expected to be approved shortly bringing the total to 73% (440 schools).

3.15. The proposed programme is set out in Appendix 3. This programme will deliver 33 improvement schemes, plus a further 20-30 small-scale minor projects, such as cycle racks or lockers which have proven popular in the past. A further eight schemes will be designed this year for delivery in 2010/11. All of these sites are schools with approved STPs.

Minor Traffic Management Programme (£520,000 LTP)

3.16. This programme relates to schemes that are small in value, often related to Traffic Regulation Orders, speed limits and signing/lining, which may be undertaken directly by the County Council or by districts under the Traffic Management Agency arrangements.

3.17. Appendix 4 sets out the list of schemes that are complete and ready for implementation as well as those to be investigated during the year. Within the overall budget, an allocation of £100,000 for fees associated with this sub programme has been top-sliced to cover staff time.

Minor Works Programme (£311,000 LTP funding and potentially £100,000 Developer Contributions)

3.18. This programme relates to schemes that are generally small highway improvements, such as missing footway links, pedestrian refuges or sightline improvements, etc, that cost below £25,000. As demand for these schemes greatly exceeds the available funding each year each HAT has been asked to identify their top priority.

3.19. Appendix 5 sets out the list of schemes to be implemented this year. Not included, at present, is the list of small value developer funded schemes that have been identified for delivery during the year. Work is ongoing to prepare a programme for the first quarter monitoring report in June.

Quality of Place Programme (£387,000 Local Resources)

3.20. When setting the 2008/09 budget, the indicative allocation for 2009/10 for Quality of Place was £1,630,000 including £200,000 from within Highways Maintenance, £1,043,000 from local resources for the former Environmental Improvements programme and £387,000 carried forward from 2007/08. The highways maintenance element has been earmarked towards the A3 overspend, and all bar the carry forward from 2007/08 has been removed from the programme in response to the reduction in local resources. There are no new resources available in 2010/11, but in 2011/12 there is an indicative allocation of £720,000. This will need to be reviewed following a reassessment of the financial situation as the economy recovers.

3.21. The programme proposed in Appendix 6 includes schemes that are either well advanced, or where external funding has been secured, or where commitments have been made. In addition to this allocation of £387,000, the Quality of Place Programme is forecast to carry forward £1,973,000 of prior year approvals into 2009/10 which is committed to existing projects.

Community Transport Programme (£250,000 LTP)

3.22. This county-wide programme supports and develops a number of community transport schemes around Hampshire that in recent years has included the provision of new and replacement minibuses. Through the provision of grants to voluntary organisations, buying vehicles and equipment, etc the County Council supports the network of existing community groups and stakeholders in Hampshire to provide specialised or focused transport to ensure that everyone can access important services and local amenities.

3.23. The County Council has commissioned consultants to undertake a review of community transport services in Hampshire to recommend options for the future delivery of services. This will evaluate the County Council's existing approach, highlight good practice and examine alternative methods of delivery elsewhere around the country. The completed review is expected in the spring and will help to determine how the 2009/10 allocation can best be used. A programme is scheduled to be submitted for approval in September 2009.

Quality Bus Partnership Programme (£100,000 LTP)

3.24. Since 1999 this programme has supported a number of Quality Bus Partnerships that enable the County Council to work in partnership with the county's bus operators to improve and promote local bus services in Hampshire.

3.25. The budget has been reduced by £200,000 in order to provide resources towards the A3 Major Scheme overspend.

3.26. The programme in Appendix 7 seeks to `fill in the gaps' in previously implemented partnership routes, in Havant and Basingstoke, aiming at individual stops where raised kerbs, new shelters and improved passenger information will be beneficial. Additionally, within the county-wide QBP heading, bus stops will be improved in Winchester, Rushmoor and Andover.

Waste Management Programme (£5,066,000 Local Resources/Grant)

3.27. The overall sum available for waste management capital expenditure during 2009/10 is £7.956 million. This comprises new approvals of £4.860 million included in the 2009/10 capital programme, together with £2.490 million from forecast unused approvals carried forward from previous years and a £0.606 million Department for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs contribution towards household waste recycling centre improvements.

3.28. The proposals in Appendix 8 set out a programme for 2009/10 totalling £5.066 million, although only some £2 million of this is expected to be spent during the current financial year.

3.29. A balance of £2.890 million approvals remains unallocated in 2009/10 which, together with the capital programme provision of £0.840 million for 2010/11, gives a total of £3.730 million approvals currently unallocated across 2009/10-2010/11 for future years' schemes.

4) Conclusions

4.1 This report is the final stage of preparing the department's capital programme. Apart from the community transport programme, which will be brought forward in September, and the low cost safety programme, amendments to the minor traffic management and minor works programme, which will form part of the first quarter monitoring report in June, this completes the sub programme plans for the year.

4.2 Expenditure and programme delivery will be carefully monitored throughout the year and progress will be reported as part of regular Capital Programme quarterly monitoring.
