A77 current maintenance policy and 12 month repair history: EIR release

Information relating to a road your authority is responsible for maintaining.

Specifically, my query relates to the A77 1.5 miles north of the South Ayrshire Boundary. Can you provide: 

1) A copy of your current road maintenance policy relating to that road. Send the full policy, but this should include details of the intended frequency of road safety inspections, how these inspections should be conducted and the maximum time between identification of a defect and repairs being carried out.

2) A copy of the road repair history for that road over the past year. Again, the full road repair history, but this should include:

  • Dates of all safety inspections between 23rd December 2018 and 20th February 2019
  • Details of how safety inspections were undertaken (walked or driven, speed of inspection vehicle etc)
  • Details of all carriageway defects identified, with description, date and time
  • Details of how the authority handled these defects, what repairs were undertaken and the time between the identification of each defect and a repair being carried out.
