When Local Authority roads are closed at short notice due to emergency works, we are not consulted. However, we use our social media channels to ensure the travelling public are notified of possible disruptions to their journey on our strategic road network. The member could approach the WLGA for information on how local authorities monitor the condition of local roads.
