Following the recent complaints raised and meetings that Local Campaigner Sarah Moore and Councillor Tim Ball have had with both Officers and Directors from Bath & North East Somerset concerning the poor state of repair of some of the roads across the area we have received the following response:
"The Principle Engineer Highway Maintenance has visited the site and identified a section of the carriageway at Kelston View Road that requires reconstruction and a section that is suitable for an overlay as part of a trial to improve the ride quality. The general condition of most of the slabs is good but we will address the particularly bad section as part of next year's Structural maintenance programme."
They also stated: "As Highway Authority, it is our duty to maintain the highway for road users legally entitled to use the road."
Whilst we are pleased our campaign appears to have made significant progress, we will not be reducing the pressure we are applying on the council until all poorly maintained roads across the area have actually been sorted.
If you have an issue in your street, please do get in touch with us.
