Minutes:

10.1

Rachel Morris, Northern Assembly Streets Ahead Programme Steward, Amey, reported that the Ewden works and the scheme at Station Road, Ecclesfield, would be completed before Christmas and that the New Year would see works commence in the Wisewood area, which would include Stannington, Loxley, Dungworth, Hillsborough and Walkley.  Four roadshows had taken place in the Wisewood area and these had been positively received.  Works would commence on local and residential roads in High Green and Bradfield, with roadshows taking place in Bradfield on 9th January 2013, and in High Green on either 16th or 23rd January 2013.  Plans would be available at the roadshows showing the areas covered.

 

 

10.2

Responses were provided to public questions as follows:-

 

 

 

·               Requests for litter bins were all being reviewed at the moment and discussions would be held with Assembly Members to decide which locations were to be selected.  Any information which would assist prioritisation was welcomed, e.g. to ensure that officers did not visit proposed locations just after a local litter picking had taken place.

 

 

 

·               Street cleaning issues at Ashwood Road and Compton Close would be investigated.

 

 

 

·               In the financial year 2013/14, works would be undertaken on local and residential roads in Stannington and some main routes in Ecclesfield, and there would be drainage and structural improvements in Stocksbridge.

 

 

 

·               Rachel Morris would take further details from the questioner about flooding on Brightholmlee Lane, Wharncliffe Side, so that a proper investigation could take place.
