Issue details

The annual Highways maintenance programme utilises asset inspection, survey and condition data to initially assess how funding should be targeted. This is prioritised further in response to ongoing feedback from communities, businesses, elected members, partner organisations and utility providers amongst others. This is in adherence with national best practice in the development of a balanced and targeted highway asset management service.

In addition to basic maintenance services and projects the Highways Asset maintenance teams manage and design schemes and programmes of network enhancement projects that are scrutinised in public via the Executive member for Economy and Transport Decision sessions and are appraised and assured through the work of the Transport Board.
