footpath trip hazards identfed each year.
LATEST RESULT AND TARGETS
WHAT THIS TELLS US
Potholes, faults and trip hazards refect
whether we have the right balance with our
maintenance programme. If we don’t have any,
we would be maintaining to an unafordable
standard. If we have too many then safety
would be compromised.
With cuts to our budgets over the frst three
years of the 10-Year Plan we expect there will
be an increase in potholes, cycleway faults
and footpath trip hazards. However, this stll
refects a reasonably good level of maintenance.
Funding then returns to normal from year 4 of
the plan. This is a short-term cost saving only.

feel” of the network, including cleanliness and
