WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR TRANSPORT AND TECHNICAL SERVICES BY DEPTY J.M. MAON OF ST. SAVIOUR.
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 10th MARCH 2015
Question
Further to the previous Minister's response to question 8424 on 14th July 2014, can the Minister explain when the work for traffic and crossing improvements at the Longueville Road / Rue des Pres junction will commence, as it would appear that the promised consultation that was due to take place in the last quarter of 2014 has not occurred, and if not, why not?
Answer
As explained in the previous Minister's response of 14 July 2014, the original assessment related to calls for a pedestrian crossing in Longueville Road by Miladi Farm (copy of answer to 8424 attached).
We are sure you will appreciate there is a large call on my small team of Traffic Engineers' time. They are progressing a number of priority schemes in St Saviours and other parishes.
Unfortunately limited resources have meant that the Department has been unable to take the scheme beyond concept design. This now needs to be discussed and agreed with the Connétable and the District Deputies to ensure Parish support.
Once a preferred solution has been agreed with the Connétable and Deputies, we will then instruct the Officers to prepare the detailed materials required for a public consultation. We anticipate a consultation being carried out later in 2015, with capital funding provisionally allocated in 2016, subject to a successful consultation and continued funding.
