Please can I request the following information:
1. The date(s) and cost of the inspection and marking of road defects in Britten Drive (EX32 8AQ) during 2023/24.
2. The date(s) and costs of the pothole filling arising from the inspection visit.
Information on the date(s) of the inspection and marking of road defects in Britten Drive (EX32 8AQ) can be found in the following report Britten Drive Barnstaple category 9 service road, inspected annually.
Devon County Council does not hold information on costs for individual inspections of road defects or for repairing them. This is because we pay our contractor their incurred defined costs (for plant, labour, materials etc) plus a fee on top rather than per defect or inspection.
3. The tradename and description of the materials used to prepare and fill the potholes.
With regards to materials used, this may vary between operational areas across Devon. Typically, on a road such as this we would require smaller pothole defects (of which there have been 4 repaired this year on Britten Drive) to use a HAPAS approved, cold lay road repair product in conjunction with a bond coat which should be applied to the edges and base.
