Addition of Proposed Changes to Highway Layout Associated with Developments at New Hall Lane, Adelaide Street and Witton Street, Preston (Section 278 funded) to the Highways Block of the 2015/16 Capital Programme
PDF 51 KBOn 18 June 2015, planning approval was granted by Preston City Council for change in use of office accommodation located on London Road, Preston to a state funded school. As a condition of planning consent, it is proposed to add a signal controlled pedestrian crossing on New Hall Lane as well as coloured surfacing on the side roads either side of the crossing to highlight carriageway crossing points. A new footway is also to be constructed on Witton St and a new footway with loading bay is to be constructed on Adelaide St, as well as changes to existing waiting restrictions. These works are necessary to improve the route schoolchildren will be using to access the new school.
These works will be funded by a Section 278 Highways Act 1980 payment by the developer, and in order to commence statutory advertisement and implementation, it is necessary to add the scheme to the County Council's Capital Programme.
This is deemed to be a Key Decision and the provisions of Standing Order 25 have been complied with.
