DfT Guidance How to reinstate a road after doing street works

1.   NG A2.4 Cold-lay surfacing materials

PCSMs are allowed within equivalent materials in terms of air voids and durability. Engagement with the supply chain may be needed to understand equivalence of a product, for example a PCSM that is demonstrated as equivalent to HRA will be allowed within HRA.

2.   NG 1.2Guarantee period

A reinstatement is deemed to be completed when fully compliant with this Code, this includes appropriate surfacing and road markings on the permanent carriageway, footway or cycle track reinstatement and restoration of verges including soil and seeding. If the reinstatement has been registered prior to completion, the guarantee period will be reset on compliant completion.

3.   NG 12.1 General

Removal and replacement of the surfacing materials do not reset the guarantee period, only when an engineering investigation has been completed in accordance with S2.5 and an excavation is into the lower layers to rectify the cumulative settlement limit being exceeded, will the guarantee period be reset.

4.   Move S12.1.4 to become S12.4.3
