The SCOTS Roads Group’s purpose is to engage with industry and academia and share good practice across roads authorities in Scotland. We will provide a consistent, knowledgeable and professional voice across all aspects of road maintenance and management. Representation on the UK Roads Board will enable Scotland to contribute to national guidance and consultations.
The group will, through the Winter Maintenance Sub-Group, engage in benchmarking and monitor developments and share good practise to ensure a consistent approach to service delivery to the road user across Scotland.
The group will, through the Development Control Sub-Group, liaise with appropriate bodies and national agencies to ensure a consistent approach to design of spaces by developers. It will also liaise with Scottish Water in terms of agreed ownership and maintenance of surface water drainage assets.
The group will update, through the Policy Development Sub-Group, guidelines and upcoming consultations regarding legislation and guidance.
