The Portfolio Holder approved the draft
2024/25 Transport Improvement Programme, set out in Appendix A of
the report for submission to TfL for approval of funding.
 
The Portfolio Holder approved the delegation
of any amendments to the programme, once the final allocation is
confirmed by TfL, to the Director of Environment & Public
Protection, in consultation with the Portfolio Holder for
Transport, Highways & Road Safety

Reasons for the decision

This report is to seek approval for the Local
Implementation Plan programme submission to Transport for London
for the financial year 2024/25. Transport has a key role to play in
delivering these MBEB objectives. Projects to enhance walking and
cycling infrastructure will be used to improve the public realm of
town and local centres, providing a quality environment and
creating places that people want to spend time in, thereby
supporting vibrant, thriving town centres. By providing attractive
walking and cycling infrastructure, residents will be able to
undertake exercise as part of their everyday routine, improving
their health and reducing the chance of disease. Infrastructure
such as benches and improved walking routes help to ensure that
older residents can remain active, thereby supporting independence
and also promoting a healthy Bromley. Above all, the safety of road
users on our streets needs to be enhanced as far as is
possible.
