Issue - decisions

Councillor Burton provided the Committee with a verbal update from the Joint Transport Board.

The Board’s support had been given to Kent County Council and Maidstone Borough Officers to work jointly to provide a report with further detail on the results of the VISUM modelling on DS4, which would give consideration to transport mitigation measures to support development.  This should include consultation with bus and rail operators alongside methods to increase multi occupancy car use and the phasing of new developments.

The Board would reconvene on 7 December 2015 to consider the report.
