To approve allocation of an additional
£4,850,000 from the Community Infrastructure Levy towards
delivery of the A382 pedestrian, cyclist and vehicular link road
improvements between Newton Abbot and Drumbridges roundabout.
It is proposed to make this contribution in exchange for
£4,850,000 funding from Devon County Council that will be
provided from recovered Housing Infrastructure Fund receipts at
South West Exeter.
An urgent decision on this matter is required in order that Devon
County Council and the Department of Transport have sufficient time
and certainty with which to approve the total funding package for
the A382 improvements. It is understood that the relevant DfT
committee are due to meet during July 2024. Before then, Devon
County Council require certainty with which to confirm and put
forward the proposed arrangements. A Teignbridge District Council
decision is therefore required in June 2024.
(1) Approve a contribution of £4,850,000
towards the A382 road improvements between Newton Abbot and
Drumbridges roundabout;
(2) Receive £4,850,000 (plus index) from Devon County Council
to be spent on infrastructure priorities needed to support
development in Teignbridge; and
(3) Delegate authority to the Head of Place and Commercial Services
to complete a funding agreement with Devon County Council
associated with the contributions and take such other actions as
may be necessary to make and receive the payments.
