5 Repairs to Private Streets Policy PDF 116 KB
To consider a policy on how to deal with requests to repair unadopted roads.
Minutes:
The Cabinet Member considered a policy on how to deal with requests to repair unadopted roads.
Each year the Council received requests to repair unadopted roads. However, the Council’s responsibility in respect of unadopted roads differed from that for highways that were “maintainable at the public expense”.
The proposed Repairs to Private Streets policy would set out a consistent approach in dealing with requests from owners or frontagers to carry out repairs to private streets to obviate danger to traffic and/or pedestrians.
RESOLVED
That the Cabinet Member for Environmental Services approves the Repair to Private Streets Policy set out in Appendix A to the report.
