While some of this process can be conducted manually, more extensive data collection will require the temporary installation of cameras to capture movement data. Cameras should be fixed securely to existing columns and should not obstruct the footway or impair roadside operational requirements. Contractors should ensure that any fixtures will not damage the adjacent street furniture. The temporary equipment and the mounting stands should match the colour of the surrounding street furniture.

Planned events infrastructure Designing in permanent infrastructure to support planned events may be considered in exceptional circumstances for the delivery of certain key services on roads which regularly serve as a focus for significant citywide events. This may include reinforcing designated areas of footway for planned HGV overrun or for locations where generators will be accommodated during events. As a general principle, streets should be designed for flexible use so that they can serve as focal points for activity when required. In all cases we have a duty to ‘assert and protect the rights of the public to the use and enjoyment of any highway for which they are the highway authority’ (Section 130 of the Highways Act 1980) and so any temporary or permanent infrastructure to support a planned event should uphold this bond. Other permanent event infrastructure Design teams may wish to include additional services such as power sockets and fixtures to assist in the hosting of major events. Post mounted banner arms may be considered for lamp columns on roads which serve as major event routes. Any other non-standard permanent item of street furniture should be approved by the SDRG. Bespoke features should be integrated with the streetscape palette to minimise the visual impact.
