A report from the Director of Regeneration and Environment is attached. This presents, for approval, a highway asset management policy and strategy. (Key decision – reference number 4088)

(Report No.221)

(8.50 – 8.55 pm)

Councillor Chris Bond (Cabinet Member for Environment and Community Safety) introduced the report of the Director of Regeneration and Environment (No.221) presenting, for approval, a highway asset management policy and strategy.

NOTED, that the Council had very good highway asset management practices in place and was continually developing them, as detailed in the report and accompanying policy and strategy.

Alternative Options Considered: To not have in place a clear policy and strategy on highway asset management would not meet the drivers for such documents as outlined in section 3 of the report and could prejudice funding opportunities from central government.

DECISION: The Cabinet agreed that the Highway Asset Management Policy and Strategy be approved.

Reason: Enfield, as a highway authority, should have in place a policy and strategy for its highway asset management, which was endorsed by senior decision makers.
