The Transport & Connectivity Policy Committee of Bristol decided... to defer a decision on the Streetspace 2: Denmark St and Rosemary Lane project, which sought approval to submit a Full Business Case, accept and spend funding, and award contracts for the scheme.

...to procure and award contracts for pedestrian accessibility measures along the A37/A4018 corridor, funded by WECA Early Works Funding or other sources, was approved before a Full Business Case was approved, and the Executive Director of Growth and Regeneration was authorized to procure and award the contract, including any extensions/variations, in consultation with the Committee Chair.

...£1,400,000 was approved and allocated from previously allocated Strategic Community Infrastructure Levy (SCIL) funding for an Active Travel Network Audit and Improvements, with the Executive Director authorised to take necessary steps to spend the funding and adjust allocations within the budget.

... to re-procure and award a new Vehicle Towing Contract for £1 million over 5 years, authorising the Executive Director for Growth & Regeneration to manage the contract and any extensions.

...to address a petition to halt the East Bristol Liveable Neighbourhood scheme, the Committee debated and noted the petition, referring the debate's topic and the views of both the petitioner and the Committee to the Policy Committee Chair for a formal response to the petitioner.
