Highway Maintenance Programmes 2004/05 and 2005/06

Report of the Director of Environment

Item 6

Contact: Philip Churchward, tel 01252 398282

1. Summary

1.1 This report outlines:

      (i) progress with the 2004/05 Highways Maintenance Programme;

    (ii) details of the 2005/06 Highway Maintenance Budget; and

    (iii) details of the 2005/06 Highways Maintenance Programme.

2. Background

2.1 Members will be aware from previous Panel meetings that the highway maintenance programme is funded from both revenue and capital allocations.

2.2 The revenue maintenance programme funds minor works such as pothole repairs; routine drainage work including gully cleaning; signs and road markings; environmental maintenance of grass verges, trees and shrubs; weed control and highway emergencies. Minor bridge works and winter maintenance are also funded from revenue. Budget allocations are set at a level that is intended to ensure the safety of the highway network.

2.3 The capital maintenance programme funds planned maintenance, including special maintenance, resurfacing and surface dressing, and also provides for essential repairs to the structure of the highway.

3. Progress with the 2004/05 Highways Maintenance Programme

Revenue Maintenance Programme

3.1 The total allocation for Rushmoor for 2004/05 was £289,000. Progress throughout the year has generally been in line with the spend profile. A budget monitoring statement is included in Appendix 1.

Capital Maintenance Programme

3.2 The total allocation for 2004/05 was £1,135,820. This includes additional funding of £251,000 for special maintenance schemes. The programme is nearing completion and it is expected that it will be delivered as planned within time and budget constraints. A budget monitoring statement is included within Appendix 1.

3.3 A status report detailing progress of all special maintenance, resurfacing and surface dressing is attached as Appendix 2.

4. 2005/06 Highway Maintenance Budget

4.1 This year Hampshire has received a significantly reduced Central Government grant through the Local Transport Plan process, £34.1 million compared to the £39.5 million received for 2004/05. The effect of this, plus other limitations on the budget this year, is a reduced overall budget for highway maintenance and hence a more limited programme of highway maintenance works county-wide.

4.2 The overall Highway Maintenance budget for 2005/06 approved by the Executive Member for Environment is £45.781 million (including the locally resourced capital budget). This comprises £22.131 million Revenue funding, £23.65 million funding from the Capital Programme provision and an additional £3.678 million of capital funding allocated by the Executive Member for highways maintenance works. The emphasis of this spending to be in the current areas of greatest need, that is minor rural road carriageways and urban footways. This means an additional £100,000 being spent in Rushmoor. The total allocations for Rushmoor are £286,000 for Revenue and £607,000 for Capital funded works.

5. 2005/06 Highway Maintenance Programme

Revenue Maintenance Programme

5.1. As described above, the revenue maintenance programme funds three main areas of highway maintenance:

      (i) reactive minor repair works on the road and footway network;

      (ii) minor traffic management improvements of signs and road markings; and

      (iii) environmental aspects of highway maintenance, including grass cutting, weed treatment, and tree and shrub maintenance.

5.2 The total allocation for Rushmoor is £286,000. A detailed breakdown of the budget allocations for 2005/06 is set out in Appendix 3. An additional allocation of £145,000 is made to Rushmoor Borough Council for the agency managed tree, shrub, hedge and grass maintenance.

5.3 Additional revenue budgets are held centrally for the performance elements of the County Council's term maintenance contract. The performance based work contained in the contract includes:

      (i) gully emptying;

      (ii) visibility splay grass cutting;

      (iii) winter maintenance;

      (iv) ordinary bridge maintenance; and

      (v) potholes, road markings and road studs on Principal (A) Roads

Capital Maintenance Programme

5.4 The funding allocation for the capital maintenance programme is based on the HAMP rating system and will reflect the agreed intervention levels. The HAMP rating intervention level directs funding to those maintenance schemes displaying a higher `maintenance need'. This system comprises an independent assessment of the condition of roads that have been identified as potential candidates for substantial maintenance works such as resurfacing. The total allocation for Rushmoor in 2005/06 is £607,000. Details of the 2005/06 allocations are set out in Appendix 3.

5.5 Planned structural maintenance repairs undertaken through the capital maintenance programme include surface dressing, special maintenance and resurfacing schemes. A provisional list of schemes under each of these headings for 2005/06 is attached as Appendix 4.

5.6 The capital maintenance programme also supports the centrally controlled areas of work including major maintenance schemes and bridge maintenance.
