Off-street Car Park and Traffic Control Centre equipment replacement

Report of the Executive Director, Economy, Environment & Culture

Decision:

That the Environment, Transport & Sustainability Committee:

 

1)            Grants delegated authority to the Executive Director, Economy, Environment & Culture to:

 

(i)            Procure and award a contract for the provision and installation of car park and Traffic Control Centre equipment and associated support systems and maintenance with a term of five (5) years and the option to extend for up to a further two years;

(ii)          Grant the optional extension to the contract referred to in 2.1(i) subject to satisfactory performance of the contractor.

Minutes:

31.1      The Committee considered a report of the Executive Director, Economy, Environment & Culture that sought approval for the procurement of a contract for the provision and installation of car park and Traffic Control Centre equipment and associated support systems and maintenance. This was to replace the current contract and allow for the provision and installation of new equipment in 5 council owned car parks.

 

31.2      Councillor Wares observed that the report identified parking charges as a crucial income source, yet it was recognised that levels of car ownership needed to decline to meet carbon neutrality by 2030. Councillor Wares stated it was likely these two issues would come into conflict in the near future.

 

31.3      Councillor Moonan asked why equipment was being replaced at only four car parks.

 

31.4      The Traffic Control Centre Manager clarified that the contract related to pay on foot equipment and other car parks, such as Norton Road car park used pay and display equipment.

 

31.5      RESOLVED- That the Environment, Transport & Sustainability Committee:

 

1)            Grants delegated authority to the Executive Director, Economy, Environment & Culture to:

 

(i)            Procure and award a contract for the provision and installation of car park and Traffic Control Centre equipment and associated support systems and maintenance with a term of five (5) years and the option to extend for up to a further two years;

(ii)          Grant the optional extension to the contract referred to in 2.1(i) subject to satisfactory performance of the contractor.
