LoTAG fully supports an asset management approach and we want all highway infrastructure in London to benefit from it: by working together to support each other share good practice, and make a compelling London wide case for investing in our highway infrastructure All boroughs will be requested to submit an Asset Management Status Report alongside this year’s LIP submissions

10. LoTAG Conference – 11 th May 2015 The Asset Management Status Report will be a high level document, between 10 and 20 pages, that captures core asset management information including: Asset quantities Current asset condition/performance and target condition/performance Total (capital and operational) asset expenditure, and A statement on your asset management practices and a simple self assessment of your asset management maturity

11. LoTAG Conference – 11 th May 2015 This information will be used by LoTAG to: Build the evidence and compelling case for investment in London’s highways infrastructure that can be put to TfL and the DfT. In addition evidence can then also be submitted to Defra and EA in respect of drainage assets. Identify areas of good practice that can be shared across London and wider Identify areas where boroughs require support on asset management Drive continual improvement in asset management

12. LoTAG Conference – 11 th May 2015 LoTAG is requesting that all boroughs complete an Asset Management Status Report and submit it to LoTAG at the same time as their LIP submission to TfL in Sept/Oct 2015 This will act as a dry run to refine and improve the report ahead of 2016/17 when its submission may become a formal LIP requirement and be linked to funding settlements A draft template has been developed by LoTAG Group 2 and is being circulated for comment

13. LoTAG Conference – 11 th May 2015 LoTAG requires ‘support’ to ensure it is effective Funding is to be provided to fund a dedicated ‘resource’ to support the work of LoTAG to work closely with the LoTAG Group 2 Steering Group Support to the Sub-Groups (LoBEG, LoHEG, LoLEG & LoDEG) is also under consideration The LoTAMB Benchmarking Group should continue particularly as they provide the ‘core’ performance data that will be needed for the Asset Management Status Report
