An event took place on Thursday, 23 June 2011 to share emerging findings and ensure the review is shaped and informed by the views of stakeholders. Here are the slides which set out the background to the review.

7. Change in Traffic Volumes Change in road maintenance spend Change in purchasing power Change in roads in acceptable condition Headline Backlog (£) Council Roads + 4% (since 2004/05) + 22 % (over last 15 years) + 12% (2004/05 – 2009/10) - 13% (due to road maintenance industry inflation) - 4% (from 2005 to 2010) 1.54 billion (640 million more than in 2004) Trunk Roads + 3% (since 2004/05) + 37% (over last 15 years) - 12% (2004/05 – 2009/10) - 32% (due to road maintenance industry inflation) - 6% (from 2006 to 2010) 713 million (480 million more than 2004)

19. Methodology BASELINE Full deployment ‘ Accepted/ standard practice’ eg. 80-100% of road authorities employ BEST/GOOD PRACTICE Partial deployment eg. up to 50% of road authorities employ NOVEL/ INNOVATIVE DEPLOYMENT Possibly only 1-10% employ Barriers to wider adoption/ uptake Cost/ resources/ skills/ risk..? Innovators/ producers Route to market/ trials/ barriers/ risks..?
