Hide AdCouncillor Terry Douris, who oversees highways, said: “In Hertfordshire we have a very busy road network and we share our residents’ views that it is very important to keep these safe and moving.
“To do this we need to make sure that the resources we have are used in the most efficient way, so our works programmes are carefully calculated using a system for which we have been nationally recognised as a leading authority.”
