    19/00065 - Public Rights of Way Asset Management Plan 2019

    Decision Maker: Cabinet Member for Community and Regulatory Services

    Decision status: Recommendations Approved

    Is Key decision?: Yes

    Is subject to call in?: Yes

    Purpose:

     

    Background:

     

    The Public Rights of Way and Access Service adopted asset management principles for the maintenance of the PROW network in 2007. This approach has brought benefits in targeting investment in the network, managing risk and evaluating new products and materials where they may help reduce long term expenditure. This plan has now been reviewed and updated.

     

    Alternatives to the continued operation of asset management principles for Public Rights of Way maintenance have not been  considered.

     

    How the proposed decision meets the objectives of ‘Increasing Opportunities, Improving Outcomes: Kent County Council’s Strategic Statement (2015-2020)’: The strategic direction for the management of the PRoW network is set out in the Rights of Way Improvement Plan (ROWIP), adopted by the County Council in November 2018. The ROWIP is aligned to meeting the County Council’s strategic objectives:

     

    ·         Children and young people in Kent get the best start in life.

    ·         Kent communities feel the benefits of economic growth by being in work, healthy and enjoying a good quality life.

    ·         Older and vulnerable residents are safe and supported with choices to live independently.

     

     

    Decision:

    As Cabinet Member for Community and Regulatory Services I agree to:

     

    (a)  The Public Rights of Way and Access Service Asset Management Plan,

     

    (b)  The approach taken to managing the risks associated with not fully funding the maintenance of the PRoW network in line with asset management principles; and

     

    (c)  The proposed Service Level Risk Assessments which set out our approach to the management of risk on the PRoW network.
