Summary: This report updates Members on the identified schemes approved for construction
1. Introduction
This report provides an update and summarises schemes that have been programmed for delivery in 2022/23.
Kent County Council has recently published a forward works programme for the next five years covering planned maintenance of our highway assets. It is in two parts: the first concerns the two years (2022/23), and most of the sites included have already been verified by our engineers. The second part relates to years three to five of our five-year programme (2023/24 - 2025/26) and is largely based on data from our asset management systems, so may be subject to more changes as the schemes are verified.
This programme is subject to regular review and may change for a number of reasons including budget allocation, contract rate changes, and to reflect our changing priorities. The programme and extent of individual sites within the programme may also be revised following engineering assessment during the design phase, and additional sites may be added or others advanced if their condition deteriorates rapidly so that we need to react to keep the highway in a safe and serviceable condition.
Further information about how we manage our highway infrastructure, including our county-wide five-year forward works programme, may be found on our website:
In addition to planned maintenance of our highway assets, this report includes transportation and safety schemes, developer funded works, Combined Members Grant schemes, and planned maintenance of public rights of way.
