BACKGROUND DOCUMENTS: Appendix A- Pendleton Roads Feasibility Study Plan Appendix B- Roads in the Pendleton Area that are currently SCC Land Assets (not adopted highway) included in the feasibility study Appendix C - List of Provisional Schemes- HIP 2018/19 KEY DECISION: Yes: All wards affected Page 1 1 DETAILS: 1. The Highway Investment Programme 1.1 The Capital allocation for highway structural maintenance during 2018/19 has been specified as £1,500,000. 1.2 Salford City Council implemented a Network Recovery Plan (delivered through the Highway Investment Programme) in 2009/10. This was implemented to arrest the deterioration of the highway network initially and to enable the Council to tackle the critical sections of highway thereafter. 1.3 Since it’s commencement in 2009/10, the Network Recovery Plan has seen an improvement in overall carriageway and footway condition, across all classifications of the adopted highway network, as shown in Tables 1 and 2 below. Target % of classification within each All % of classification within each category category Rating Class 2010- 2011- 2012- 2013- 2014- 2015- 2016- 2017- 2018- 2019- 2020- . 11 121 132 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 red 9.3 8.4 3.1 6.4 7.8 4.4 4.8 5* 5* 5* 5* amber 10.5 10.2 4.7 4.8 5 11.2. 11.8 11* 11* 11* 11* C/ways yellow 37.6 35.7 9.5 12.9 14 25.2 27.8 29* 29* 29* 29* green 42.6 45.7 82.7 75.9 73.2 59.2 55.6 55* 55* 55* 55* Table 1 – Carriageway Condition Index Summary (The Highway Improvement Programme commenced in 2009/10) *Targets are aspirational figures that are reviewed each year based on previous year’s results and are not projections.

These will vary based on levels of investment and these are therefore currently affected by the investment levels provided which is less than the investment requested. Page 2 2 1.4 Due to the reduced funding from 2016/17, the request put forward for funding for 2018/19 was £3.4million however the allocation has been provided at £1.5million. This is likely to result in deterioration of the network due to this lower level of funding provision. However it should be noted that there will still be some benefit provided by historic funding levels. The targets for steady state are based on this year’s funding provision of £1.5million. 1.5 The anticipated rise in the percentage of critical carriageways is due to the acquisition of former housing roads that are in a relatively poor condition. In addition, some of the early Micro Asphalt treatments that were applied at the start of the Highway Investment Programme are now reaching the end of their projected lifecycle and are showing signs of deterioration. 1.6 The reduction in funding since 2016/17 is indicated in Table 3 below. This has had an impact on the condition indices. The aspirational targets have therefore been adjusted to reflect this lower investment going forward. The figures provided in Table 3 below indicate the amount of funding requested in the Gateway bid for each year since 2016/17, the actual allocation and the difference. Gateway Bids Requested Provided Difference 2016/17 £4,800,000.00 £3,400,000.00 £1,600,000.00 2017/18 £5,300,000.00 £3,820,000.00 £1,480,000.00 2018/19 £3,800,000.00 £1,500,000.00 £2,300,000.00 Table 3 Gateway Bids and allocations 1.7 As the Network Recovery programme progresses the type of work being proposed will move toward dealing with critical condition carriageways (red) and selected areas of footways. Page 3 3 1.8 In summary the proposed apportionment of available funding for 2018/19 is outlined below in Table 4 below.

  • Curated by Amy Stevenson ALUMNI
    Curated by Amy Stevenson ALUMNI showcases new work by three artists selected from the growing network of University of Salford Art Collection and School of Arts and Media Graduate Scholars. JOE BEEDLES Beedles is an artist who uses technology to experiment across music, sound and visual art – creating highly immersive and unique experiences. The current focus of his practice is generative systems for live performance, installation and video, which explore the threshold between the real and the simulated. In the video piece OP_dewel and accompanying prints, Beedles considers the changing landscape and skyline in Salford and Manchester. The video comprises footage shot along The Crescent (A6) between Salford Crescent train station and Trinity Way. The footage is processed in real-time using a custom Max patch, which also controlled the audio. Audio events triggered a resetting action, causing the current frame from the video (that is continuously playing in the background) to be flashed at the video shader and fed back into the system that further blurs, tints and distorts the image until the next reset. The main component of the audio was achieved through a type of synthesis called physical modelling, where physical properties of real acoustic instruments are modelled in a software environment with the advantage of adding impossible attributes. For OP_dewel a stringed instrument is replicated and the resonance properties are warped, resulting in a sinister quality reflective of Beedles journey along The Crescent – ‘feeling intimidated by the imposing cranes’. Chopped audio was also taken from the footage and mixed with the synthesis element. The frame-flashing technique is something Beedles developed since his residency in Chongqing, China during October - December 2017, funded by Centre for Chinese Contemporary Art (CFCCA).
