Buckinghamshire Council has urged residents to ‘respect its workforce’ amid ongoing resurfacing and maintenance roadworks.

Ten resurfacing roadwork projects will begin or continue next week, alongside street lighting upgrades at locations across Buckinghamshire.

A spokesperson for Buckinghamshire Highways said the transport branch of the unitary authority has now completed over 28,000 road repairs since April 2023 and asked residents to “respect its workforce” amid an increase in road worker abuse over the last year.

They added: “We have up to 21 crews working on road repairs, including potholes, some seven days a week and around the clock.

“Since April, our projects have included cleaning almost 62,000 gullies, fixing 2850 streetlights and completing 12 grit runs.

“In addition, we also respond to emergencies on the highway, such as flooding and fallen trees and, with several recent major storms, our crews have responded to over 540 callouts in January alone.”
