Maintaining roads

Additional Maintenance Funding 2023/24 – Network North


The Prime Minister’s Network North announcement on 4 October 2023 included a commitment to an additional £8.3 billion for local highway maintenance from 2023/24 -2033/34.  
 
At the end of November 2023 Devon County Council received an additional £6,663,000 of funding to be allocated within the 2023/24 financial year from the Road Resurfacing Fund for local highways maintenance, particularly for the resurfacing of carriageways, cycleways, and footways to prevent potholes and other road defects from occurring.  

Of the additional funding, approximately £1.5 million was allocated to the funding of extra serviceability patching gangs to prepare the network in advance of the more extreme winter period.  The aim to build resilience and arrest the traditional spike in the creation of potholes during this period. 
The remainder of the funding was allocated to surfacing and larger patching schemes which will provide targeted resilience across the network:
