Holly Hill Car Park Path

Decision Maker: Executive

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: Yes

Purpose:

To agree to fund and construct an informal path to link the car park at Holly Hill Leisure Centre with the existing footpath that leads to the entrance of Sarisbury Infant School.

 

Prior to the opening of the new Holly Hill Leisure Centre parents predominantly used the Holly Hill Woodland car park when dropping off and collecting children attending Sarisbury Infant School.

 

Some parents are now using Holly Hill Leisure Centre car park to avoid crossing Barnes Lane.  However, there is currently no direct path from the car park to the school entrance.  This mean parents and children sometimes get wet and dirty shoes when walking across the grass to the school entrance.  The proposal is to provide an informal path to link the car park at Holly Hill Leisure Centre with the existing footpath that leads to the entrance of Sarisbury Infant School.

 

There is no revenue budget available in Streetscene to cover the estimated £6,200 to construct the path.  There is a capital budget of £36,000 for footpath improvements which is used to repair or replace existing footpaths on public open space and in cemeteries.  It is proposed to fund the cost of constructing the path from this budget.

 

The path will be constructed of resin bound gravel and will require periodic works to maintain a level surface.  The grass edges of the path will require trimming on a regular basis along with treatment of weed growth.  These will be additional maintenance tasks for the Streetscene team to undertake with the cost funded from the existing Streetscene revenue budget.

 

A specialist Engineering Design Team has been consulted about the construction of the path and they have confirmed there is no requirement to undertake a formal risk assessment.

Decision:

RESOLVED that the Executive agrees:

 

(a)  to construct an informal path to link the car park at Holly Hill Leisure Centre with the existing footpath that leads to the entrance of Sarisbury Infant School; and

 

(b)  that the estimated cost of £6,200 to construct the path is funded from the Footpath Improvement capital budget.
