Work to tackle England’s road surfaces are "starting to turn a corner" as almost 7,000 miles of resurfacing work is scheduled for completion this year, the government has stated.
The Department for Transport (DfT) said the combined work is equivalent to travelling the distance between London and Singapore. It includes close to 5,000 miles of preventative maintenance alongside nearly 2,000 miles of structural maintenance set to be completed during this financial year.
