2005 edition of code of practice for highway maintenance management. The need for a robust regime of safety inspection and a planned investment programme based on whole life costs are fundamental to highway maintenance. This edition gives much greater prominence to asset management and risk management. It also provides advice on the implications of the 2004 Traffic Management Act. It considers the importance of effective management in relation to aiding regeneration, social inclusion, community safety, health and the environment. It offers advice on providing for disabled people, particular needs of motorcyclists, integrated public space and townscape management, and planning for severe weather events. New check lists for maintainability and sustainability have also been developed. The performance management section has been completely rewritten in this edition. See also 'Well-maintained highways complementary guidance' which updated the report in December 2009.
