Utlity streetworks

Under the New Roads and Street Works Act 1991, utility companies have to inform the council of any work being carried out.  We will inspect a percentage of this work.

If there is a problem with the road surface please complete the online report a street issue form or e-mail highways@slough.gov.uk

Traffic and travel news

The BBC Travel website has the latest on traffic incidents and other travel disruptions.

Resurfacing programme

The highways team produce a programme of works to footpaths, pavements and roads in the borough.

Each year we carry out a series of special inspections on all the roads and a proportion of pavements in Slough. Based upon these, we draw up a list of roads that need resurfacing in order of technical merit. A lot of factors determine the priority of a road on the list and include the state of the road’s surface, whether the road is actually failing structurally, the road classification, proximity of schools, hospitals or other vulnerable users.
