Table 15 - Street Maintenance Responsibility Codes
14.3.2.3
STREET_STATUS = 1, 2 or 3 must only be supplied with Records that are identified as the INTEREST_TYPE = 1 - Primary Notice Authority.
14.3.2.4
Examples of Streets that are neither publicly maintainable nor prospectively maintainable, therefore require to be STREET_STATUS = 3 are:
- Private Streets.
- Toll roads.
- Toll bridges.
- Toll tunnels.
14.3.2.5
STREET_STATUS = 4 must only be present in the ASD Update to indicate that the Street is maintainable by a Highway Authority. This only applies to Streets maintainable by Highways England, Network Rail, Transport for London and the Welsh Assembly Government.
14.3.2.6
STREET_STATUS = 4 must not be used to state that the Street is subject to a local area or service level agreement with another Local Highway Authority.
14.3.2.7
If STREET_STATUS = 5 is used, then INTEREST_TYPE = 1 - Primary Notice Authority must be recorded. For more information about organisation interest types, see Table 15.
14.3.2.8
The Street maintenance responsibility can be used to help determine the List of Streets as defined by S. 36(6), Highways Act 1980. For further information, see Appendix I.
14.3.2.9
The Street maintenance responsibility must always be present in the DCA Street Update. STREET_STATUS = 5 covers type 1 Streets which exist for addressing purposes only and are not subject to noticing under the EToN specification. The four cases of this are:
- Type 1 Street named terraces on another type 1 Street. STREET_STATUS = 5 and type 11 Interest Record STATE = 5 – Street for addressing purposes only, must be present in the DCA Street Update. A Street with STATE = 5 must not be present in the DCA Street Update with any other Street maintenance responsibility code.
- Overlapping Streets. If two Streets overlap, one of the two Streets must be chosen by the Authority Street Custodian to be the Street to be noticed for Street Works and for the purposes of the List of Streets. This Street must have STREET_STATUS = 1 (or 2, 3 or 4 as appropriate) for its entire length of the Interest Record. The other Street must have two type 61 Records with different Street maintenance responsibility codes:
- STREET_STATUS = 5 for the section that is in the overlap.
- STREET_STATUS = 1, 2, 3 or 4 (as appropriate) for the rest of the Street.
