Residents celebrate as Nottinghamshire breaks national record for the most major road surface improvements compared to anywhere else in the country.

Council Leader Mick Barton and Deputy Transport Cabinet Member John Semens celebrate new national record.

This is part of a record-breaking £182.5 million investment package to improve our highways.

Work since April has seen:

✅ 152 surfacing schemes completed.

✅ More than 56 miles of road resurfaced.

✅ 150 miles of surface dressing.

✅ The use of different equipment, materials and repair methods to make right first time, permanent road repairs.

✅ 44 schemes covering carriageways, footways, drainage and bridges already completed.

Cllr Barton said: "We are leading the way in repairing our roads with the record level of investment and our extensive 12-month programme of work.

“The scale of this year’s programme shows that we are not simply reacting to potholes – we are taking a much more proactive approach to improving and protecting our road network for the future.

“These teams will be working all hours throughout the winter months and I am determined that we will not let up on delivering on our promises to make our roads safer, smoother and more resilient for the years ahead.”
