HCC’s approach to road adoption Vetti Vettivelu Highways Development Control Service Manager

Summary The problem Highways & Transport Panel November 2009 Recommendations Scrutiny February 2010 More scrutiny!

The problem BAe Hatfield - ( mixed use major development) Backlogs - Transfer from Districts Bond overrun charges/ bond limits Bad public relations Increased costs of remedial works Increased liability Maintenance expenditure

Highways & Transport Cabinet Panel 10 November 2009 REPORT TO PANEL WITH NUMBER OF RECOMMENDATIONS

Recommendation 1 In order to give greater clarity On developments with no through route, only the main access road will be considered for adoption Residential access roads serving underground car parks, supported by structures or taking the form of short culs-de-sac with no wider highway benefit will not be considered for adoption

Recommendation 2 In order to give earlier certainty The extent of adoption should be agreed in principle by the developer and Highway Authority (planning and implementation teams) at the planning stage This should be recorded in the planning consultation response

Recommendation 3 In order to achieve a signed S 38 Agreement as quickly as possible Pressure should be brought to bear on developers to enter into S 38 Agreements by the use of highway informative notes in the planning consultation response

Recommendation 4 In order to ensure long-term maintenance of unadopted roads for the benefit of residents If the developer states that they do not want to offer roads for adoption, the long term maintenance of private (unadopted) roads in residential developments should be secured as a standard requirement through a S106 obligation

Recommendation 5 In order to give greater clarity to residents Street name plates on unadopted roads should clearly identify them as such

Recommendation 6 In order to improve joint working for collective benefit It is recommended that the aspects requiring cooperation of the Local Planning Authorities are discussed with them and protocols established under the Pathfinder banner

Recommendation 7 In order to reduce the numbers of roads waiting to be adopted The backlogs of historical adoptions should continue to be actively managed down by Hertfordshire County Council officers as quickly as resources permit
