Run off from land adjacent to the highway

Where there is or is likely to be run-off from landscaped areas, open spaces and adjoining land, appropriate arrangements must be made for land drainage. This can include providing intercepting drains and ditches with satisfactory outfalls.

Where private non-adoptable drives and other surfaces fall towards the adoptable highway, surface water run-off must be prevented from reaching the highway boundary and entering the highway drainage system.
