Guidance to Cambridgeshire County Council’s responsibility under highways legislation and for loss or damage caused by defects on the highway.

Introduction

Cambridgeshire County Council is responsible for over 4000km of highway within Cambridgeshire.

Damage to vehicles or personal injury caused by defects on the highway is regrettable.

Cambridgeshire County Council endeavours to minimise the likelihood of these as far as possible within its limited resources.

As the highway authority, the County Council is required to maintain the highways of Cambridgeshire to a standard appropriate to their status and use. Inevitably this standard may not always meet the high levels some may expect!

Please note the Highways Agency are responsible for Trunk Roads (M11, A14, A1(M), A1, A11, A47 and A428).
