IHE comments on 2023 ALARM survey
- Tuesday March 21, 2023

The Annual Local Authority Road Maintenance (ALARM) survey published today (21st March 2023) by the Asphalt Industry Alliance (AIA), and now in it’s 28th year, provides detailed insight into the funding and conditions of the local road network, based on information provided directly by those responsible for its maintenance. This year it received a record number of responses from 75% of local authorities in England and Wales, providing robust findings which are used by stakeholders across the sector for tracking, benchmarking and planning purposes.
Chief executive of the Institute of Highway Engineers, Steve Spender commented, “With a 75% response rate the report clearly identifies the real challenges that local highway engineers face maintaining a deteriorating network with reduced budgets whilst facing the severe challenges of inflation”.
