Paragraph 32 Construction traffic and route surveys

The NH works must not commence until a dilapidation survey of the condition of the roads, bridges and retaining walls along the routes approved for construction traffic for the authorised development has been carried out by the Company and has been submitted to and approved in writing by National Highways.

No more than 28 days after the completion of construction of the authorised development, the roads, bridges and retaining walls surveyed under sub-paragraph (1) must be re-surveyed by the Company.

If the re-survey carried out under sub-paragraph (2) indicates that there has been damage to the roads, bridges or retaining walls that have been surveyed, and that such damage is attributable to the use of those roads, bridges and retaining walls by construction traffic for the authorised development, the Company must submit a scheme of remedial works for those damaged roads, bridges and retaining walls to National Highways for its approval in writing, which must not be unreasonably withheld.
