Roadworks on Hog Lane issue
Reported via desktop in the Failed reinstatement category anonymously at 17:00, Tue 8 July 2025
Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7829129.
The work on Hog Lane that has been done is not to a sufficient standard and is awful and is still in need of repair. The work that has been done needs to be looked into as this should not be allowed and needs to be done again. The work is substandard and the rest of the road has still not been completed.

After carrying out any work on the highway, this includes the footpaths/verge, companies who have a legal right or permission to work on the public highway must adhere to the standard set out in the Code of Practice for Reinstatements. These works are guaranteed for 2-3 years dependant on the depth of excavation, if a reinstatement fails and is within the guarantee period, we can instruct them to fix the fault.
We as the Highway Authority will always carry out an inspection on these reinstatements and if they are deemed to be below standard we will instruction the company to come back out and resolve at their costs, not the taxpayer.
