New government figures show that Lewisham is one of only 16 local highways authorities in England to get a Green rating on potholes.
The ratings range from green (highest) through amber to red (lowest). They measure how well each local highway authority is maintaining its local roads and are based on 3 areas:
- the current condition of local roads
- how much each local highway authority is spending on maintaining its local roads
- how effectively each local highway authority follows best practice in highways maintenance – for example by using technologies to fix and prevent potholes more efficiently
The ratings are based on data from official statistics and data from the transparency reports that local highway authorities had to publish on their websites. Links to each local highway authority’s transparency report are provided in the table below.
