National Highways’ inspectors carry out daily safety patrols on the motorways in Yorkshire and weekly safety inspections on other stretches of the Strategic Road Network (SRN). Where safety critical defects, including potholes, are identified, they are made safe within 24 hours. Permanent repairs are carried out according to the severity of the defect, often within 28 days. National Highways will continue to review the condition of our motorways in Yorkshire, along with other routes on the SRN, to ensure that future improvement works are prioritised according to need.
