HGV route remediation

239.—(1) The undertaker must maintain and provide to the relevant local highway authority at 3 month intervals from the date of any Works being undertaken under this Order until the authorised development is complete, records of the number of HGVs using the highway identified in paragraph 238(2) and/ or any amendments thereto to access the authorised development and details of which route such HGVs used.

(2) The relevant local highway authority will, having regard to the highway condition surveys, identify any need for remediation of the highway on the highway identified in paragraph 238(3) and/or any amendments made thereto.

(3) Where a need for remediation works or measures is identified under sub-paragraph (1), the relevant local highway authority must prepare a schedule of the works or measures required and of the cost of the delivery of those works or measures identified. For the avoidance of doubt, the reasonable cost of reviewing the highway condition surveys and preparing the schedule of works will be met by the undertaker.

(4) Upon receipt of the schedule of works identified in paragraph (2) and/or any amendments made thereto, the undertaker will apply for a licence from the relevant local highway authority to undertake the remediation works to the highway and must undertake these works within 3 months of that licence being granted. The cost of the licence and relevant approvals will be paid by the undertaker to the relevant local highway authority.
