• The report has been passed to the Highway Officer, who will carry out an inspection of the issue within 10 working days, emergency defects will be corrected or made safe at the time of the inspection, if reasonably practicable to do so. In this context, making safe may constitute displaying warning notices, coning‐off or fencing‐off to protect the public from the defect or other suitable action. If the inspection team cannot make safe the defect at the time of inspection, then they will instigate the relevant emergency call procedures to ensure appropriate resources are mobilised to make the defect safe.

  There may also be occasions when the issue reported will not be repaired as it has been classified as a minor defect and does not pose any risk to either the safety or the integrity of the highway, these are called minimum recording levels as specified in our Highways Safety Inspection Policy.

• Our Urban and Rural grass cutting schedules start in April each year and is delivered in collaboration with Parish Councils. Priority will be given to road junctions where clear visibility for Highway users is important. The Grass Cutting programme is split into 2 types, Urban and Rural cuts.
  The works programme is weather dependant and subject to delays. We therefore ask that you remain patient should there be delays or excessive growth in-between cuts. Where strimming around obstacles like signposts is needed, this will happen within 3 days of the grass cutting in an area which may not happen at the same time.
