Publication: Maintaining Scotland's roads 2004

by Auditor General, Accounts Commission

This report says that a backlog of road maintenance has been building up for around ten years; 13% of the network (7,000 km) is now in need of repair. Councils and the Scottish Executive estimate that over £1.7 billion needs to be spent to bring our roads up to standard. This report concludes that greater priority needs to be given to tackling the backlog.
