ORDINARY MEETING OF COUNCIL 27 CITY OF VINCENT26 JULY 2011 MINUTESSUSTAINABILITY IMPLICATIONS:Nil.FINANCIAL/BUDGET IMPLICATIONS:While an accredited Traffic Management contractor is yet to be engaged, it is expected thatthe supply and installation of all signage and traffic control devices for the twenty-seven (27)road closures, provision of sufficient staff (accredited traffic controllers) for a period of eighthours (including mobilisation and demobilisation, set up and dismantling), will cost in the orderof $4,500.COMMENTS:Traffic Management for large public events has over the past decade become a specialisedfield. An accredited Traffic Management contractor is more cost effective and better able toprovide the level of service required to comply with relevant Australian and Main Roads WAstandards than tying up Council resources. Hence most government agencies (includingMain Roads WA) and Local Government Authorities, no longer undertake large-scale roadclosures and traffic management. The Traffic Management Contractor will be required toprovide a comprehensive traffic management plan, all signage and barricades and trafficcontrol personnel.It is therefore recommended that the Council approve the temporary closure of streets asoutlined in the main body of the report to accommodate the 2011 Pride Parade on19 November 2011.MINUTES OF MEETING HELD ON 26 JULY 2011 TO BE CONFIRMED ON 9 AUGUST 2011
