I would like a copy of the road maintenance and repairs from March 2018 the road in question is A22 Godstone Road.

TfL will ensure that the roads under its responsibility remain safe following the Well Maintained Highways Code of Practice for Highway Maintenance. The Transport for London Road Network (TLRN) is inspected on a regular basis,  an effective way of assessing and recording the relative risks associated with potential circumstances of network condition. There are three categories of inspections – safety, service and condition and each of these inspections provide the basic information for addressing the core objectives of highway maintenance namely network safety, serviceability and sustainability. This information is used to develop maintenance programmes.

Please find attached a copy of the road maintenance and repairs from March 2018 for A22 Godstone Road.

The A22 Godstone Road is a low speed (30mph) TfL road and routine safety inspections are undertaken by walking on a monthly basis by LoHAC safety inspectors.
