Articles and guides from the McFadden team in the Reinstating category.

How long does tarmac take to dry? Hot lay is ready when it's cool, not after a set number of days, and cold applied sets on its own schedule. What the UK standards say.

HAUC develops the codes behind UK street works but does not issue or enforce them. Which reinstatement standards are law, and how authorities check them.

Reinstatement works meaning in UK highway and utility work: the NRSWA duty, the SROH standard, and interim vs permanent reinstatement explained.

The SROH is the statutory reinstatement specification for highways in England: what it requires, the current fourth edition, the guarantee period and the 150 rule.
