Statistics on the condition of roads in England, as well as other aspects of highways maintenance for 2017.

The data comes from multiple sources including Highways England, Local Authorities, and the Ministry for Housing, Communities and Local 바카라 사이트. Some data from local authorities form part of the Single Data List, making the provision of data a mandatory requirement.

In the financial year ending 2017, local authorities reported that:

  • 3% of their local 바카라 사이트˜A바카라 사이트™ road network should be considered for maintenance
  • 6% of their 바카라 사이트˜B바카라 사이트™ and 바카라 사이트˜C바카라 사이트™ road network in England should have been considered for maintenance

Both of these were the same as in the financial year ending 2016, and represent a gradual improvement over the last 5 years. By contrast, local authority managed unclassified roads have not seen the same improvement over this period.

Of the roads managed by Highways England:

  • 2% of motorways should have been considered for maintenance
  • 4% of 바카라 사이트˜A바카라 사이트™ roads should have been considered for maintenance

A has been published. It presents information on the proportion of local authority managed 바카라 사이트˜A바카라 사이트™ roads and 바카라 사이트˜B바카라 사이트™ and 바카라 사이트˜C바카라 사이트™ roads that should have been considered for maintenance. The map also covers data for earlier years.
