There is no summary of this meeting yet. One is written once the council publishes the minutes. The agenda and papers are below.
Councillor Fouweather asked: How much will it cost to install new traffic enforcement cameras across the city and have any new sites for cameras been identified. Councillor R Howells responded: Newport has successfully bid for a Welsh Government Road Safety grant to upgrade the enforcement cameras at all 4 existing speed enforcement sites across the city. The grant included both camera upgrades and replacement of the housing infrastructure costing £315k. Additionally, working with our partners in Gwent Police and Go Safe, a bid for speed and red-light running enforcement cameras to be installed at the Wharf Road/ Chepstow Road signal-controlled junction, was also successful. This bid was supported due to the high levels of contraventions and traffic incidents recorded. The grant to provide cameras and housings at this location was £96.5k. You will be aware that these cameras relate to endorse-able moving traffic offences enforceable only by Gwent Police and Go Safe.
Councillors must say when they have a personal link to something being discussed, such as a job, a property or a family member. A prejudicial interest is one strong enough that the councillor usually leaves the room and takes no part.
Declarations are read from the minutes once they are published.
