Rotherham is set to undergo a major road repair initiative, investing £16 million to improve over 34 miles of highways and footways.
This plan was approved on December 16, marking the start of a four-year program aimed at sprucing up 235 different road maintenance projects. It’s all about making the roads and footpaths in Rotherham safer and more enjoyable for everyone.
Councillor Robert Taylor, who’s in charge of transport and local jobs, said keeping the roads in good shape is super important. He mentioned that they regularly check the roads to ensure they’re safe. Plus, they’re using some clever materials to save money while keeping residents happy. The feedback has been great, with fewer complaints about road conditions.
So, if you’re curious about which roads are getting some TLC next year, there’s a long list. From Grange Avenue to Buttermere Close, and many more, Rotherham is gearing up for a smoother ride ahead.
