Road improvements

Over the next year, we'll be carrying out major improvements to the county's roads and pavements as part of our £27 million capital investment programme.

We'll also invest an additional £3 million of funding for local highways maintenance and we will also receive the same additional amount in 2024 to 2025 as part of the Network North Roads Resurfacing Fund. This extra money is to help repair roads damaged by Storm Babet and other recent weather events.

We'll be carrying out hundreds of jobs to improve roads across the county. These include resurfacing, surface dressing, micro asphalting, new street crossings, improvements to public rights of way, and traffic safety work.

We're also carrying out micro asphalting on many other streets and making improvements to many of our pavements.

Our contractors will put up yellow signs giving the dates and times of each job. The work will mainly be carried out from 6pm to midnight, and we'll need to close the roads, so diversions will be in place. To find out exact times and dates please visit One Network and search for the road you're interested in.

The following road will be resurfaced in April 2024:

• New Street, Somercotes

The following site is currently identified for April 2024 but is subject to confirmation from our external contractors:
