Delivery of Wood Lane Cycleway and development of a Shepherds Bush Green public realm scheme

This report is seeking a decision to progress the design and delivery of the Wood Lane Cycleway consulted on in 2019, subject to securing funding. It also seeks approval for the development of a concept design for the Shepherds Bush Green and Holland Park Roundabout areas.

 

Reasons for Urgency:

 

This is an urgent decision due to the ongoing TfL funding uncertainty. On 13 December 2021 an interim extension was announced following a funding settlement being granted by the Department for Transport (DfT) until 17 December 2021. The most recent position of the extraordinary funding and financing agreement between TfL and the DfT has been extended to 4 February 2022.  There thus remains an urgent need to ensure financing can be unlocked in accordance with irregular funding schedules and secure future funding for the boroughs intended scheme.

Decision type: Key

Reason Key: Expenditure/Income over £5m & policies or new income, reserves use, overspend over £300K;

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Wards affected: (All Wards);
