New Chester Road (Rock Ferry Roundabout to New Ferry Village) Pedestrian and Cycle Improvements - Approval of Additional Funding

The report of the Interim Director for Highways and Streetscene Services seeks approval for the allocation of £150,000 of Transport Plan for Growth Capital funding to enable the delivery of a series of measures to improve facilities for pedestrians and cyclists on New Chester Road between Rock Ferry roundabout and New Ferry Village. The Cabinet has previously approved the delivery of the New Chester Road STEP scheme, following award of a £550,000 Sustainable Transport Enhancements Package (STEP) grant allocation, and this additional funding is now required to enable the scheme, which will support the delivery of the Connecting Wirral Transport Strategy, to proceed to Contract award stage of the procurement process.
