Standard drawings

The standard drawings in this section of the LHDG are the council's predefined drawing templates that contain standard notes and details. They should be used in the design of highway construction projects in Leicestershire and in conjunction with the council's specification document.

The council's requirements in addition to the Manual of Contract Documents for Highway Work

Unless otherwise stated, all highway works shall be in accordance with the MCHW, Volume 1 of the National Highways’ Manual of Contract Documents for Highway Works, current at the time of completion of the S38, S278, or similar Agreement. Some of the Clauses and Appendices included in our Specification for Highway Works for New Developments contain additions and amendments to the SHW. Where such Clauses and Appendices depart from the SHW, these departures shall apply.
