Decision details

This report seeks to reallocate residual funding from two schemes in Totton, previously agreed in 2015 and subsequently implemented. The residual monies, alongside a small sum previously unallocated, are proposed to be reallocated to a new scheme for implementation. Namely improvements to the Junction of Salisbury Road and Hamtun Gardens, Totton.

On 28 January 2025. Cllr Derek Tipp, the Portfolio Holder for Planning and Economy made the following decision:

That £50,269.76 of held S106 transportation monies be reallocated to the improvement of the junction at Salisbury Road and Hamtun Gardens, Totton.

Any member of the Council, who is not a Portfolio Holder, who considers that this decision should be reviewed should give notice using the call-in facility at the top of this page on the Council’s intranet / extranet site. Alternatively, notice can be given to the Monitoring Officer (Tanya Coulter) (in writing or by e-mail) to be received ON OR BY 5.15 pm on 4 February 2025.

Details of the document the Portfolio Holder considered are attached below.

The proposed reallocation consists of £46,255.31 of residual funds which were previously allocated to two projects in Totton and a small proportion of as yet unallocated developer contributions held by the Council.

The reallocation of the monies to the improvement of the junction at Salisbury Road and Hamtun Gardens would improve a section of the primary cycle route that runs the length of the Waterside area and is included in the Waterside Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plan (LCWIP).

The developments north of Totton at Strategic Site 1 will increase the demand for this route. The provision of improved infrastructure at this junction will encourage use of this corridor by active travel modes and will support the Corporate Plan objectives.
