Purpose

To agree the schemes to be included in the Council’s 2025/26 Highways Capital Programme. 

Decision

I approve the funding allocations and scheme lists for 2025/26, as outlined in Appendices 1 & 2 of the report. This decision was published on 10 April 2025 and will come into force on18 April 2025.  

Reasons for the decision

To ensure that the Highways Capital Programme is prioritised and targeted towards schemes that meet the Council’s transport policies and goals.

Alternative options considered

The proposed schemes and expenditure included in the proposed Highways Capital Programme are considered to provide the best package of measures to meet the Council’s objectives, to maintain the highway infrastructure efficiently, and to selectively improve it to deliver transport schemes to support community aspirations where these are consistent with the goals, objectives and transport strategies set out in the LTP.
