REPORT
In order to decide what improvements to make, the Department of Infrastructure has a process whereby all new requests are considered at a monthly Road Safety Review Panel, where officers review the request along with any other evidence available, to determine the most appropriate response to the concern. Where it is decided that there is an engineering intervention needed, then these are included in the annual programme preparation process in the autumn of each year. This process prioritises proposed schemes based on a range of criteria which reflect the priorities set out in the Island Plan.
The crossing asked for in the proposition (P.61/2018) was requested in late 2017. It was reviewed by the Road Safety Review Panel and has been put forward for inclusion in the 2019 programme. Each year's programme is complex and takes a year to develop, consult and review, before it can be implemented. This scheme is already in the process of being developed for potential delivery in 2019.
La Moye School has an effective crossing patrol, and there is no road safety evidence that could justify promoting this project ahead of those crossings already planned for 2018; such as, for example, the Longueville Road, the pedestrian refuge on Route du Fort, or outside the Janvrin Road Nursery School, in favour of this project.
Financial and manpower implications
Delivering this crossing by 1st September 2019 would fit within the Department's annual programme of work, which is resourced and funded. There is no staff resource or new funding available to implement the new crossing in 2018.
