Management of Highway Structures

Management of Highway Structures, the code of practice for highway bridge and structure maintenance management was published in September 2005. It provides local authorities with guidance on structures management in an ever changing environment, creating a strong foundation for a positive and lasting maintenance policy. Adoption of the recommendations in this code will help the delivery of Best Value services.

The Code was drafted by a team from Atkins www.atkinsglobal.com/transportation on behalf of the UK Bridges Board. It is one of a suite of Codes commissioned by the UK Roads Liaison Group. For details of the other codes, see here.

The Code is available as an Adobe Acrobat file here. Print copies (ISBN 0 11 552642 0) are published by The Stationery Office (TSO), price £24, and can be ordered from www.tso.uk.uk/bookshop or by calling 0870 600 5522.
