    • Report by:

      Ann Davie, Chief Executive

    • TN Number:

      182-25

    • Subject:

      Roads & Neighbourhood Services 2025/26 Carriageway and Footway Resurfacing Programme (Quarter 2 Update)

    • Responsible Officer:

      Thomas McMenamin, Executive Officer – Roads & Neighbourhood Services

    • Publication:

      This Technical Note will be published on the Council’s website following circulation to Members. Its contents may be disclosed or shared outwith the Council.

    • The purpose of the Technical Note is to provide Members with an overview of the 2025/26 Roads & Neighbourhood Services Carriageway and Footway Resurfacing Programme.
    • The Technical Note highlights the work programmes associated with internal and external resources as well as providing an indication of when this work is programmed to be undertaken.
    • In addition, the tables also highlight which locations have tested positive for the presence of coal tar as this work will be undertaken solely by external contractors, as the spoil created is considered a specialised waste and needs to be removed from site.
    • All works will be logged via the Scottish Road Works Register (SRWR), so that the road space was booked with no conflicting works at the location or on the diversion routes (if required). If a location is marked TBC the booking has yet to be completed and will be arranged during the coming financial year. Dates are subject to change as emergency works may be prioritised.
    • The Service will provide a further quarterly progress update via Technical Notes in January 2026 along with a final update in April 2026.
    • The overall programme is subject to change and may evolve during the year, as the Service must react to circumstances e.g., utility emergency work may require the Service to postpone or alter timescales to accommodate statutory service providers who may take priority in emergencies.
    • Cold Tar Testing is a requirement for planned resurfacing works that will also affect future programmes. Testing is ongoing and will shape which locations are progressed and by whom. Locations that test positive for Coal Tar will be undertaken by external resources due to the specialist nature of the waste materials created.
    • The under noted accordion shows the 2025/26 Roads Carriageway Resurfacing Programme and the work which will be completed by internal resources working on non-coal tar locations as part of core capital works.
