Six roads across the borough are planned for repairs and resurfacing throughout July as the council continues with its planned phase 1, comprehensive £5m programme of highways works programme.
A full list of roads set for repairs between April 2021 and March 2022 was released in March 2021, as the council’s highways contractor, Marlborough, will be repairing and re-laying full roads and stretches of roads that require immediate attention.
Works for the following roads are planned throughout July:

A full list of the 30 roads and 31 pavements set to be resurfaced in 2021/22 can be found on our website.
All road closures will be clearly signposted two weeks before work takes place. All work is dependent on the weather, as crews are not able to lay roads in adverse weather.

How we prioritise, repair and resurfacing works
The areas have gone through a strict quality check in line with the council’s procedure, which is based on various risks, and in accordance with the Highways Code of Practice. This procedure considers various items including road condition, bus routes, key routes, claims made, incidents, and flood risk.
