Roads - inspection
Summary of Service
Wiltshire County Council regularly inspects the highway network for which it is responsible.
Details of Service
The most important and busiest routes are inspected once a month, with the other roads being inspected every three or six months, depending on their classification. In town centres and busy pedestrian areas the footways and pavements have walked inspections once a month. Other important pedestrian routes have walked inspections every three months, with the less well-used pedestrian footways being inspected when the adjoining carriageways are inspected.
Cycle ways, which are part of the carriageway, are inspected when the road is inspected, and cycle ways remote from a carriageway are inspected every six months. The inspection frequencies are set out in Wiltshire's Highway Inspection Manual.
Inspections are made as necessary following calls to the Customer Contact Centre, or other reports from the public, the police, or other organisations.
In the event that extreme weather sudden damage or obstruction may occur, we arrange additional inspections of the affected areas as soon as is practicable.
