PART 11FOR THE PROTECTION OF LOCAL HIGHWAY AUTHORITIES

Road Safety Audits

157.—(1) The undertaker must procure that an appropriately qualified RSA team (as defined in DMRB Volume 5 Section 2 Part 2 (GG 119) or any replacement or modification of that standard) undertakes road safety audit in accordance with DMRB standard GG 119 and must provide copies of the reports of such audits to the relevant local highway authority within 10 business days of their receipt by the undertaker.

(2) The relevant local highway authority must be invited to participate in the road safety audit conducted under sub-paragraph (1).

(3) Where the report of the stage 3 and 4 road safety audit identifies any recommended measures in respect of the local highway, the undertaker must carry out, at its own expense and to the reasonable satisfaction of the relevant local highway authority, those measures identified as part of stage 3 and 4 audit which the undertaker considers necessary (acting reasonably) and which do not give rise to any new or materially different environmental effects in comparison with those identified in the environmental statement.
