2 Page 3 Agenda Item 4 Beddington and Wallington Local Committee 27 February 2018
Members raised concerns regarding the income that will be generated, the terms of the contract, ensuring the communications is inclusive and does not exclude the BME groups within the community and how enforcement will be managed.
Andrew Chandler informed the Committee that the concerns raised regarding the contractors have been captured in the terms and condition of the contract, being finalised during mobilisation and there will be key performance indicators monitored and reviewed during and after 6 months when the trial will end. There will be a communication strategy that will look at how the messages are communicated to the local community and out of borough as well in relation to enforcement, costs and abiding by the park bye laws as well as the changes in the arrangements for parking and enforcement.
RESOLVED that the update be noted.
41. THE SUTTON PLAN
Jessica Crowe, Assistant Director of Customers, Commissioning & Governance, provided an update on The Sutton Plan and how the Council and other local agencies were working together.
The public and Committee Members were invited to participate in table top discussions regarding the priorities.
A representative from each of the 3 tables provided feedback to the Committee on what was discussed and the concerns raised by local residents as follows:
Tackling Domestic abuse and its causes - Residents should play a bigger role in shaping services
Supporting older people - The focus on making Sutton an age friendly borough is good! Thought should be given on the definition of older people and how we can use ‘older people’ as assets to the community. A particular issue with this demographic is the transfer out of hospital. There needs to be more work done to make this process easier on the patient, especially on the communication front.
Providing early help for vulnerable families - There are some really good organisations in Sutton that are supporting this - namely Homestart who run a particularly effective befriending programme. In the short term, a parenting programme would help struggling families. A longer term approach would be to find a way to track the flow of a child through the system.
3 Agenda Item 4 Page 4 Beddington and Wallington Local Committee 27 February 2018
Making Sutton a better place for all ages - Need to think about how to develop an infrastructure for volunteers to thrive, ensuring that it is inclusive of all including the BAME community and the disabled community. Thought also needs to be given to those who are digitally excluded.
Wellbeing groups need to be promoted widely.
Other things The Sutton Plan could focus on include - o Social isolation of all ages not just older people. How can people in their 20s and 30s be supported. o Creating better role models o Dealing with antisocial behaviour in Beddington North o Supporting marginalised communities on the borders of Beddington North
RESOLVED: that the presentation and update be noted and the concerns and feedback provided be taken into consideration as final version of The Sutton Plan is developed.
42. RECOMMENDATIONS TRACKER
Claire Smith, Locality Lead Officer, presented the report.
Councillor Cook and local residents raised concerns relating to Cranley/Stanley Gardens and Woodcote Green/Sandy Lane South LIP Scheme and the length of time the schemes has taken to be implemented.
Ian Price informed the Committee that in relation to the Cranley/Stanley Gardens scheme the resolution of the Committee to agree the scheme could not be found and he will endeavour to search further and to keep the Committee updated. He also confirmed that the Woodcote Green/Sandy Lane South LIP Scheme would be implemented in March/April 2018.
RESOLVED: that the contents of the tracker be noted
43. PUBLIC REALM PROJECTS & NEIGHBOURHOOD GRANTS
Claire Smith, Locality Lead Officer, presented the report.
Councillor McCoy enquired if the concerns raised by the Sherwood Hill, Headteacher relating to the Sherwood Hill School to include drop kerbs as part of the scheme would be included in the work to be done.
4 Page 5 Agenda Item 4 Beddington and Wallington Local Committee 27 February 2018 Claire Smith informed the Committee that the £4,000 of LTF funding for Sherwood Hill School to keep clear markings does not include “drop kerbs” work and it would need to be investigated and costed by Highways.
The Chair, enquired if once the investigations were complete and the costings were looked into whether an urgent decision could be made.
Claire Smith informed the Committee that the decision could be taken as an urgent decision and agreed by the Chair at a later date.
RESOLVED that:
1. £4,000 of LTF funding for Sherwood Hill School to keep clear markings be approved.
2. £1,620 for a damaged bench to be replaced at Woodcote Road, corner of Woodcote Avenue be approved.
3. £675 of Public Realm revenue for 2 x trees to be planted on Woodcote Road & Beddington Gardens be approved.
4. £3000 from Public Realm Capital and £500 from Public Realm Revenue for the installation and maintenance of play equipment in Roundshaw Park be approved.
5. £20,306 from Public Realm Revenue funding for the annual hanging baskets scheme across all ward areas be earmarked.
6. The overspend of £1,580 Public Realm Capital back into the unallocated balances be approved.
7. The recycling of the underspend of £4,000 London Transport Funding back into the unallocated balances be approved.
8. The Highways Team investigate the area outside the Sherwood Hill School for drop kerbs to be installed and that costings be submitted to the Localities Team for consideration with the Chair.
5 Agenda Item 4 Page 6 Beddington and Wallington Local Committee 27 February 2018 44. HIGHWAYS UPDATES
Ian Price, Team Leader for Strategy & Commissioning, presented the report.
Councillor Cook enquired about Elles House, crossing petition and whether the highways Team were aware of the change of request to a drop kerb after discussions with the Highways Team.
Ian Price informed the Committee that it would be included in next year’s capital funding and that investigative work will be conducted to look into providing a better facility.
Councillor Garratt enquired about an on Foresters Drive/Sandy Lane South/ Water Rise/Wordsworth Road junction and the pedestrian crossing further down from Foresters Drive/Sandy Lane.
Ian Price informed the Committee that plans were currently being updated with some more work being done with the feasibility study and a further detailed update would be circulated in 2 or 3 weeks time. In relation to the pedestrian crossing, if plans were not in the summary, then it will be looked at in the 2018/19 LIP schemes.
Councillor McCoy requested that considering the number of schemes already underway and looking ahead to the 2018/19 LIP funding, it would be good to have a rigorous timetable for the schemes to ensure schemes are not lost or just drop off the list.
RESOLVED: that the progress made towards implementing the 2017/18 LIP highway schemes and addressing local highways issues as set out in the report be noted.
45. PUBLIC QUESTION TIME

Safer Neighbourhood Team update June 2018
Beddington North, Beddington South, Wallington North and Wallington South have now been aligned to the same shifts working under one Sergeant covering the East Cluster.
The teams consist of two Designated Ward officers and one PCSO. Beddington North: PC Steve Routledge, PC Nicola Smith and PCSO Denise Goodwin Beddington South: PC Chris Davis, PC Josie Dudas and PCSO Jane Thompson. PC Dudas is currently on Maternity Leave. Wallington North: PC Bob Rosie, PC Dave Lawrey and PCSO Kate Lines. PCSO Lines is currently on Maternity Leave. Wallington South: PC Russ Clarke, PC Tom Phipps and PCSO Helen Maguire.
Due to the closure of front counters across the met, "Community Contact Sessions" (CCS) have been introduced to give an opportunity for those preferring face-to-face contact to speak to their local DWO. Each ward will hold a ONE 1-HOUR Community Contact Session PER WEEK. They will advertise these sessions as much as possible over social media, local forums and word of mouth.
The met continues with the Operation Venice that commenced on 8th January to provide a coordinated response to Moped Enabled and Knife criminality.
In addition to this, Operation Sceptre has reached its eighth phase Across London officers will be carrying out intense weapon sweeps and intelligence-led operations to confiscate knives and tackle those wanted in connection with knife-related offences and violent crime. In addition, there’ll be knife bins in all boroughs, and we’ll be using #stopknifecrime on all of our Twitter accounts.
Every ward and team has been required to input a minimum of 2 activities a week which work towards achieving the Operations objectives.
The teams have been posting on twitter and Facebook some of their activities.
All four teams are covering the priorities of Burglary, Theft from/of Motor Vehicle and ASB. Wallington North is also covering Road Safety and Traffic.
Wallington North Canon Court has been an ongoing ASB case for Wallington North and they have been working with multi agencies to try and tackle concerns of ASB and Motor Vehicle crime at the location. The management agency is still working on providing a substantial gate to restrict entry to residents and guests. We were expecting this to Agenda Item 5 Page 10
be in place by now but logistical issues have caused delays. Patrols have been ongoing at this location and calls to police have been very few in the last months.
During routine patrols of the ward the team have carried out stop and searches, notably where PC Rosie stopped an individual on Bute Road with a knife who was also wanted by police in relation to a burglary. Four Misuse of drug warrants were executed, one resulting in the seizure of £28,000 a £9000 Rolex, a very large amount of cannabis and a quantity of cocaine.
Lastly, an ongoing 3 year ASB issue has now been concluded with a vulnerable adult with MH issues now being provided the appropriate care that he required. His neighbours are now experiencing a much less noisy and confrontational living environment. This was a great example of joint working with the MH team from Jubilee House. Wallington South have been made aware of two brothels in the Wallington Shopping area, Woodcote Road and Ross Parade both generating a nuisance for neighbours. After some work with landlords and housing associations both have now closed down. The designated ward officer, PC Russ Clarke is currently pushing for the alley on Ross Parade to be gated in order to prevent anti social behaviour in this area.
Officers continue to work closely with two care homes for young persons on the ward to reduce criminality brought to the area by a limited number of their residents and their associates. The communication between staff and police has been improved and the homes have put new stricter regulations in place for their tenants.
The new canopy in Wallington Square has caused some concern with youths climbing on the structure. PC Clarke immediately raised the obvious health and safety concerns with the building management team who are putting in place a number of measures to address the issue.
Beddington South officers, Special Constables and Police Cadets were involved in a recruitment and engagement day at John Fishers School Community Rugby Day at the beginning of May bringing some old police vehicles to the event. Plain clothes patrols in and around Mcintosh Close continue due to reported ASB, drug taking and drug dealing. Further arrests have been made and the Rapid Deployment CCTV camera is now in place. Sutton Council’s Youth engagement team have also visited the area. Intelligence gathering continues. The team have also been targeting the Roundshaw Open Spaces with regard to nuisance motorcycles. Two mopeds have been issued with section 59 warning notices for use of the vehicles in an anti-social manner. Should these be seen again on the green they can be seized.
Page 11 Agenda Item 5
Beddington North identified and executed a warrant on a property containing a cannabis farm. Virtually every room in the house was full of cannabis plants and a huge amount of plants were seized by police.
The team have been carrying out a mixture of uniform and plain clothes patrols to try and target/ deter the burglary and motor vehicle offenders and reduce the crimes.
A persistent disqualified driver has again been caught and successfully prosecuted by the team.
Regular contact points are organised particularly at the Beddington ASDA, St Mary's Church and the Pavilion Café in Beddington Park. This page is intentionally left blank Page 13 Agenda Item 8

This page is intentionally left blank Page 17 Agenda Item 8 A Trim Trail for Beddington A proposal by Karen Savage Park & Tracey Lloyd Agenda Item 8
The Proposal:
We would like to work with the council and park guardians to have a Page 18 Trim Trail installed in Beddington Park.
Aimed at adults, a Trim Trail for Beddington Park would bring a whole new dimension to the park. Why? Inactivity: is behind a wide range of health issues which costs the NHS money. Cost: can be a barrier to fitness – this would be a free resource for the community Facility For Adults: the trail would make the park even more of a destination. The existing facilities are aimed mainly at young children. This would be aimed at adults and the teenage local school children. Page 19 This is a different offering to the existing gym equipment which limits the number of users to one person per machine and one exercise per machine. Each piece of trail equipment would be multi-functional & accommodate a larger number of users. There is trend towards this style of ‘obstacle running’ e.g. ToughMudder
THIS WOULD OFFER A STRUCTURED, DESIGNED Agenda Item 8 & COMPLETE CARDIO-VASCULAR & STRENGTH TRAINING WORKOUT Agenda Item 8 Where & what would it look like?
Our ambition is to have 15 obstacles in groups of 2 or 3 around the park. Page 20 It would run alongside the main paving areas to ensure maximum visibility/access & for safety reasons. We would work with the council and Friends of Beddington Park to ensure that the trail is entirely in-keeping with the style of the park and will not be an eye- sore. They would be made of play-grade timber with a life span of around 10-15 years. Page 21 Agenda Item 8 Agenda Item 8 Instruction
• Karen Savage would offer free monthly ‘introduction to the Page 22 Trim Trail’ sessions
• Signs at each obstacle showing options and instructions for exercises Cost?
Based on indicative quotes we would anticipate a cost of £15,000
based on £1,000 per obstacle. Page 23
We are exploring additional sources of funding to supplement the proposal. Agenda Item 8 Agenda Item 8 What about safety & maintenance? • Maintenance could be tied in with the checks on the playground
• A rubber-type surface would be underneath Page 24 each obstacle to provide grip • The design would be durable and risk assessed. • It will be made of treated, play-grade timber Support:
• Within less than 24 hours of launching our Change.org petition we had more than 150 signatures of support! • The current tally is over 600! • Click this link for the very latest support!

Report to: Beddington and Wallington Local Date: 17 July 2018 Committee Report title: Local Implementation Plan (LIP) - Traffic Schemes for 2019/20
Report from: Warren Shadbolt Assistant Director Environment, Housing & Regeneration Ward/Areas affected: Beddington North/South, Wallington North/South
Chair of Committee/Lead Councillor Joyce Melican Member: Author(s)/Contact Ian Price, Highways & Transport, 020 8547 5934 Number(s): Corporate Plan Priorities: ● An Open Council ● A Green Council Open/Exempt: Open
Signed: Date: 15 June 2018
1. Summary
1.1 This report outlines the proposed schemes to be considered for inclusion in the 2019/20 bid to Transport for London (TfL). The report also indicates the programme for the development and submission of the Local Implementation Plan (LIP) 3 document, for which a draft paper needs to be prepared by 2 November 2018, and is being developed in parallel with the Annual Spending Submission.
2. Recommendations
The Beddington and Wallington Local Committee is recommended to:
2.1 Endorse the proposed schemes as listed in the table in item 3.12 below and agree they be considered for inclusion in the submission to Transport for London in November 2018 for the 2019/20 programme.
3. Background / Issues
3.1 TfL funding is provided to boroughs to support local transport improvements that accord with the Mayor’s Transport Strategy (MTS) goals, as set out in the Greater London Authority (GLA) Act 1999. In order to achieve funding the Council must show how each scheme submitted will Agenda Item 12 Page 38
support the MTS goals, and with the recently published MTS this means that boroughs must demonstrate how proposals will support the vision to transform London streets, improve public transport and create more opportunities for new homes and jobs.
3.2 The borough’s current LIP, version 2 was approved with an original investment programme for the three years from 2011-2014, and was then followed with an updated three-year LIP Delivery Plan covering the period from April 2014 to April 2017 and since that time there have been two years of interim arrangements. A new LIP 3 document is now required to set out how the borough will deliver the MTS over the life of that document, until 2041.
3.3 LIP3 must introduce schemes that aim to achieve ambitious targets to encourage more walking and cycling, and increase access to and use of public transport.
3.4 The basis for the MTS setting boroughs ambitious targets is based on the expectation that the composition of London’s population is expected to change, altering the emphasis of future demand pressures on the transport networks. In particular, it is believed that there will be an increase in the numbers of older people – particularly focused in outer London – leading to increased demand for accessible services.
3.5 TfL have advised that travel demand is expected to increase to around 32 million trips on an average day by 2041, 5 million more than today. Despite a broad pattern of falling car mode share across London, car kilometres will rise by around 8%. This reflects the distribution of trips, with more car travel in outer London where trips are longer, and hence there is the need to ensure that most of the additional travel demand will be met through more use of public transport, walking and cycling.
3.6 Guided by the ‘Healthy Streets’ agenda, outlined in the Mayor’s recent ‘City for all Londoners’ document, this new approach aims to prioritise active travel, making walking, cycling and public transport use the best choices for travel, encouraging the most efficient methods of essential travel for people and goods, and creating more attractive, accessible and people-friendly streets.
3.7 The Healthy Street approach is based on 10 Indicators which focus on the experience of people using streets.
There are two main indicators:-
● Pedestrians from all walks of life ● People choose to walk, cycle and use public transport.
There are eight other indicators that point to the essential elements required to support these two main indicators:

3.8 Historically the annual submission prepared for TfL sought to identify a range of smaller schemes at sites or junctions, which ultimately delivered very focussed transport improvements at a local level. The guidance and drive behind the Healthy Streets agenda is to focus on improving the infrastructure across broader areas, where improvements can be considered in a more ‘strategic manner’, that is to say where there are clear opportunities for improved modal choice towards encouraging people to make journeys by walking, cycling or because of improved access to public transport.
3.9 Inevitably this will mean that there will be fewer, but larger and higher quality schemes being delivered and it will be important that as part of the development of LIP 3, that the scheme proposals being considered are linked to provide area wide coverage to ensure that the modal choice opportunities are built on across wider areas. At this stage TfL advise that there is still Local Transport Funding (LTF) available to consider smaller scale interventions.
3.10 The schemes listed in the table below have been identified by officers. They have been suggested after looking at the personal injury collision statistics for the borough, areas suitable for 20mph zones and other ‘Healthy Streets’ measures, to encourage people to walk, cycle or take public transport for their local journeys.
3.11 Scheme 1 Foresters Drive corridor - Officers are aware of a number of concerns raised from residents and ward councillors about the perception of speed related issues, and the need for safer crossing points. The project will also assess options for improvements for cycling, looking at parallel routes. It is recommended that the is phased over a minimum of two years, with initial investigations and quick wins delivered 2019/20, followed by implementation in 2020/21. Scheme 2 will focus on the Manor Road North/London Road area, where local traffic conditions have been exacerbated by changes around Hackbridge Station. Options will assess the local road impacts, and look to improve local conditions for pedestrians and cyclists in particular. It is suggested that as a significant level of investigation is required any bid for 2019/20 would be for feasibility work, followed by a bid in 2020/21 for any implementation.
3.12 Scheme 3 will focus on accessibility and local area improvements in the Clyde Road/Ross Road area. These roads suffer from significant levels of commuter parking, and the roads and paths in the area are narrow and the street environment is dominated by cars. Scheme 4 will focus on the Onslow Gardens/Blenheim Gardens area. A 20mph scheme is in place, but the car is still the dominant feature in the area, and the scheme will focus on improving the pedestrian environment, improving crossing points and routes. Consideration will also be given to options to address through traffic issues. It is recommended that the is phased over two years, with initial investigations and quick wins delivered 2020/21, followed by implementation in 2021/22. Agenda Item 12 Page 40
Given the likely level of LIP allocation it is suggested that members may wish to indicate a preference between schemes 3 and 4.
Location Possible scheme
1 Foresters Drive corridor Improved crossing facilities and pedestrian environment. Measures to encourage more people to cycle. Public transport infrastructure improvements.
2 Manor Road North/London Road Improved infrastructure for pedestrians, area cyclists and those wanting access to public transport. Recent changes to the road network have had negative impacts on this area. 3 Clyde Road/Ross Road area wide Improved pedestrian routes within the area, improvements and address through traffic and speed related concerns. 4 Onslow Gardens/Blenheim Improved pedestrian routes within the area, Gardens area wide improvements and address through traffic concerns.
3.13 Other schemes may be funded via LIP funding in the local area but have not yet been identified.
3.14 The schemes have not been investigated fully yet, so no options or cost estimates can be provided at this time and the details for the continuation scheme will not be known until the scheme development works are completed. However, depending on the scheme option and its cost estimate, there may be more schemes than there is funding available, which will require schemes to be prioritised across a three year delivery plan.
3.15 It is anticipated that £100,000 will still be available for the LTF split between the local committees in 2019/20. This local committee is expected to have an allocation of £15,749 and the schemes can be decided at a later date.
3.16 Environment and Neighbourhoods Committee will agree the schemes to be submitted to TfL at the meeting on 20 September 2018.
3.17 This committee is being asked to support the schemes identified and agree they be considered for inclusion in the submission to TfL in November 2018.
4. Options Considered
4.1 Traffic schemes are developed based on requests/suggestions proposed by Ward Councillors, community representatives, new developments and officers to meet transport targets. Each scheme is investigated and options considered before proposing the most suitable scheme to meet the desired objectives and budgetary provision. Page 41 Agenda Item 12
5. Impacts and Implications
Financial
5.1 The Council is anticipating an allocation of £1.348m (similar to amount in 2018/19) for corridors, neighbourhoods and supporting measures and £100k for local transport funding for 2019/20. The Council will also be submitting a bid for further funding for principal road maintenance and for the maintenance of highway structures. The actual amount that will be allocated will depend both on the total amount available and TfL’s assessment of the bids received.
Legal
5.2 All necessary statutory consultation will be undertaken in accordance with the relevant current legislation. All designs will be in accordance with the latest regulations and best practice.
5.3 Under Section 159 of the GLA Act 1999, financial assistance provided by TfL must be for a purpose which, in TfL’s opinion, is conducive to the provision of safe, integrated, efficient and economic transport facilities or services to, from or within Greater London.
