Q2  Councillor Campbell to the Executive Member (Sustainable Development & Infrastructure):-

 

Given my question to the Executive Member at the last Council meeting and her subsequent answer, below:

 

Q34 Councillor C Campbell – Last year a number of streets in the centre of Otley were resurfaced. Following completion of the works there were a number of "snagging" issues particularly around street gullies. Despite repeated requests for works to be carried our nothing has happened. Could the Executive Member inform council when the contractor will return and make good the works.

 

A)  Executive Member for Sustainable Development and Infrastructure In the 2022/23 year a total of 22 highway resurfacing schemes were delivered within the Otley & Yeadon ward, using both external contractors and the Highway Services Team. It is expected that all works are delivered to the highest possible standards. However, on occasions some defects occur on schemes that require remedial works. All schemes are inspected, and the relevant contractor has been made aware of the remedial work required. Some remedial works, relating to the street gullies, were carried out last week. Arrangements are currently being made to attend to some further defects, which will be completed at the earliest opportunity. The Highways Asset Manager will contact you directly to provide you with a further update.

 

Could she give a date when this might happen?

 

The Executive Member (Sustainable Development &

Infrastructure) replied.
