The Project
This role will be working for a local authority client in the North West of England and will be dedicated to Highways maintenance who are responsible for the delivery of reactive, preventative, and planned maintenance activities working closely with the asset management team. They undertake maintenance interventions identified through asset management processes, helping to preserve the condition of the highway network and prevent deterioration before more extensive and costly repairs are required.
The highways planned maintenance team is responsible for developing and delivering programmes of preventative and structural maintenance across the highway network. This includes carriageway resurfacing, surface treatments, footway improvements, drainage works, and other asset maintenance activities designed to extend the life of highway infrastructure. The team uses condition data, inspections, and asset management principles to identify priorities, programme works, manage budgets, and oversee scheme delivery. By investing in planned maintenance, the team helps maintain safe and reliable roads and footways, reduces the need for more costly reactive repairs, and supports the long-term sustainability of the highway network.
