Report by Interim Executive Director with responsibility for Roads and Infrastructure Services

The Committee gave consideration to an annual report which sought for any views and comments to be put forward for consideration as potential changes to the 2020/21 Winter Policy via the Environment, Development and Infrastructure Committee.

Discussion on the Winter Maintenance Policy focused on priority and parity, specifically in regards to school routes being treated regardless of number of pupils travelling the route and consultation with communities to better support partnership working.

Members were advised to submit any further comments or questions to the Committee Manager who would pass these over to the Head of Roads and Infrastructure for consideration.

1.    considered the report; and

2.    agreed that Head of Roads and Infrastructure would take comments back to be considered as part of the 2020/21 Winter Policy which was intended to be presented to the Environment, Development and Infrastructure Committee in September 2020.
