Members reviewed the Council’s latest performance, with highlights including strong results in helping people into employment and arranging home care packages for vulnerable residents.
Cabinet also considered the quarterly Financial Monitoring Report and the twice-yearly Treasury Management Report.
Cllr George Finch, Leader of Warwickshire County Council, said:
“The investment we are making in the bus infrastructure has tremendous potential for our towns and for our residents who want to move around the county safely and in comfort. Bus stations, shelters, information displays are all great assets to commuters and will improve the experience of visiting Warwickshire. That can only be good news for our economy moving forwards.
"The improvements to Nuneaton Bus Station go hand in hand with regenerating the town and will greatly complement the Transforming Nuneaton programme.
"Our strong performance in helping people into employment, highlighted by our performance reporting, is also good news for our economy.
“It was also very encouraging to see the work being done for our most vulnerable residents with the improvements in home social care packages."
