HIGHWAYS / FOOTPATHS a) Local Highway Panel request – Accident London Road The Clerk has received a report from a local residents of an accident that occurred on 4th February at the junction of Epping Lane / London Road, in the parish of Stapleford Tawney. Full details have already been sent to Councillors via email. The Clerk has liaised with the Clerk of Stapleford Tawney Parish Council, who has confirmed that this issue will be on their meeting agenda for 19th March 2019, stating that David Davenport, their Deputy Chair, has contacted Essex Highways on numerous occasions regarding this stretch of road to no avail. Councillors are asked to CONSIDER if they would support a joint application to the Local High Panel to address this issue, with extra signage and lighting at this location. b) Footpaths in Toot Hill The Clerk has received a letter of complaint from a local resident with regard to a number of footpaths in the Toot Hill Area that not kept clear, with owners failing to manage their maintenance responsibilities. A further update will be given at the meeting. Whilst these footpaths are not the responsibility of the Parish Council, Council is asked to CONSIDER if it wishes to take any action. c) A113 LHP request Councillors will recall the Clerk had written to the Insurance Ombudsman to obtain details of all the accidents that had taken place along the A113 through Stanford rivers. The Ombudsman advised that such an FOI needed to be made to the Association of British Insurers, which it subsequently was, however the response received confirmed that the ABI is not a public authority and as such not covered under the Freedom of Information Act. The ABI did advise that they do not receive notifications of, or handle claims, relating to road traffic collisions, and as such do not hold the information requested. The advice given by the ABI was to contact the road collisions records team at Essex Police, however as we know Essex Police only record serious incidents. Since the last meeting, there have been at least two serious crashes along this stretch of road through our Parish, details of both have been forwarded to Sarah Alcock in an attempt to express how serious this issue is. Sarah advised that she would be contacting the Police to see if they are able to advise her of the specific details of these 2 incidents. In addition, Sarah is in the process of arranging the speed surveys, which will most likely be completed in March, and has asked the Parish Council to confirm the 2 locations the Parish Council would like these to be completed (lamp post numbers etc). From the meeting at which Cllr Jackson and the Clerk attended, it was suggested one should be in the derestricted part of the road between the Woodman Pub and before the 30 mph, and the other would be in the 30mph part of the road. Council is asked to CONFIRM they are happy with these locations. Sarah also has a review meeting with Network Assurance booked to discuss any options that could be suggested to help resolve the concerns. d) Transport Meetings The next round of ECC Transport Meetings will be held in June at various locations around the County (EF 13th June). In order to create an agenda that will be of value to those wishing to attend, ECC is asking for suggestions for agenda items, to be advised by 5 April. The meeting is not for discussing historical matters which are best dealt with directly with the team. Councillors are asked to CONSIDER if there are any items they wish to address. Historically, these meetings tend to focus on areas with the greatest public transport (Loughton / Epping). 8. PLANNING APPLICATIONS Councillors are asked to CONSIDER the following matters: 1. To CONSIDER any planning applications submitted to the Parish Council for comment as detailed below EPF/0308/19 Little Colemans, London Change of use of annexe to separate dwelling house And Road, Stanford Rivers, with garden (revision to EPF/1269/12 and EPF/0797/17).
