Q1 and Q2 Our records show that there have been no planned works carried out to the road and footways on North Street in the last 10 years.
We do not have detailed records to show when the last planned works were carried out prior to this timescale. Scottish Borders Council has nearly 3000 kilometres of adopted road to maintain across its area. Each year we compile our Planned Surface Treatment Works Programme from our records of identified sections of carriageway in need of surface treatment. Unfortunately, the overall condition of our road network means that we are not in a position to treat all identified sections with a permanent form of treatment and must apply a prioritisation process to determine our annual programme which meets available budgets. This inevitably means that the remaining identified sections of carriageway have to be repaired and maintained using a more temporary type of treatment.
Unfortunately Scottish Borders Council does not hold the information you have requested and therefore we give notice under 10(4)(a) of EI(S)R 2004.
Street cleansing is carried out on a monthly schedule.
Our records show that there are no road gullies on the adopted section of North Street.
North Street, Eyemouth is not on a priority gritting route, therefore there are no records of how many times this street has been gritted in the past 5 years.
