Section 41 of the Highways Act imposes upon the County Council the duty to maintain highways. To ensure that our obligations are met the County Council has in place a system of inspection for roads and footways.
The frequency of inspections varies, dependent upon the classification of the road/footways. When a defect is identified at an inspection, or otherwise reported, necessary repairs will be carried out.
