Road Openings by Utilities - Report

More needs to be done to understand and prevent the potential deterioration of Northern Ireland’s road network where road openings have not been reinstated to an acceptable standard. That is among the findings of a report published today (Tuesday 03 December 2024) by Northern Ireland’s Comptroller and Auditor General.
Dorinnia Carville’s report on ‘Road Openings by Utilities’ considers the performance of the Department for Infrastructure in monitoring the quality of road opening reinstatements and minimising the risk that costs are unfairly transferred from Utilities to taxpayers.
