99 Policy for Unadopted Roads pdf icon PDF 76 KB

Decision:

As detailed in the recommendation.

Minutes:

The Director of Environment introduced the policy for un-adopted roads across the County.

 

There were a number of roads in the County which were un-adopted with residents unsure of their maintenance responsibilities and the process that should be followed in order to bring the road to an adoptable standard.  The lack of a clear policy caused frustration for residents and for the staff dealing with requests from residents for maintenance work to be carried out on those roads.  The approach detailed in the policy would provide an effective mechanism for dealing with private streets.

 

RESOLVED:

 

That the policy for Private Street adoptions and the interim maintenance arrangements on these un-adopted roads, as set out in paragraphs 3.06 to 3.11 be approved.
