Description:
We now have more than one hundred thousand miles of local roads across England and Wales that could need to be rebuilt within the next fifteen years, according to a yearly review of UK roads. The Annual Local Authority Road Maintenance or ALARM survey also found surface conditions have also declined - that's despite nearly one hundred and forty millionpounds being put towards filling in two million potholes in the last year. Just forty seven percent of local road miles were rated as being in a good condition, with thirty six percent adequate and seventeen percent poor. But, the rate at which roads are being repaired is up to its highest level in eight years, with the amount local councils are spending on improvements also increased across the board. But how are the roads near you? <br/><br/>The transport spokesman for the Local Government Association said the ALARM report reveals 'the huge challenge faced by councils in maintaining the local roads network', with roads deteriorating faster than they can be fixed, causing a backlog. But a Department for Transport spokesperson explained they've made extra money available for local authorities this year.
