What is NRSWA?
The New Roads and Street Works Act 1991 (NRSWA) governs how utility companies and others can dig up roads and footways. It requires advance notice, a qualified site supervisor (NRSWA card), correct reinstatement, and a guarantee period on the finished work.
How long is the reinstatement guarantee?
Under SROH, interim reinstatements must be made permanent within 6 months. Permanent reinstatements in carriageways have a 2-year guarantee period; footways and footpaths have a 3-year guarantee period.
