Amharc ar fhreagraThe school to which the Deputy refers was delivered under a Public Works Design & Build Contract which places the responsibility on the Contractor to submit the final compliance documents to the local authority.
Stage 1 and stage 2 Road Safety Audits were undertaken as part of the planning process.
My officials have sought clarification from the Contractors design team on the status of the Stage 3 Road Safety Audit. My officials will follow up with the Contractor to ensure that the Councils requirements are met as quickly as possible.
