  "text": "The network management duty, as set out in section 16 of the Act, is qualified to the extent that each authority has other obligations, policies and objectives which they must also address. Accordingly, the duty should not take precedence over everything else that they do. The Welsh Ministers recognise that all authorities face different challenges and have their own obligations, policies and objectives which will have to be taken into account when performing the duty. In addition, in assessing an individual authority’s performance, they will also consider its approach to the duty within the wider circumstances in which traffic presents itself on its network. The sort of circumstances envisaged could be projects involving economic regeneration, house building or special events. The Welsh Ministers will not expect every authority to approach the duty in exactly the same way.",
