Kent County Council (KCC) owns and maintains a substantial highway network, with our roads and footways being by far our largest asset group.
The Council must ensure it achieves the most value and the best long-term condition for its road and footway assets. To do this, the Council needs to understand the condition of its assets to be able to target planned works at the locations where it will deliver the most value.
The Council achieve this by regularly surveying the condition of its roads and footways. The results of these surveys are used to measure and report the overall network condition, identify sites for works where it is likely to achieve the best outcomes and undertake strategic modelling of asset condition in the future. This is delivered through our Highway Condition Survey service.
