This page explains how to make a request for information from the Office of The Scottish Road Works Commissioner (oSRWC). It also explains what information is routinely published by the oSRWC.
Making a Request for Information
Requests for information can be made informally or formally, in line with the Commissioner's obligations under the Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002(FOISA) and the Environmental Information Regulations 2004(EIRs).
If you would like to make a request for information under the FOISA or the EIRs, please contact us using the following information:

Should you decide to make an information request, the oSRWC has a procedure for handling these requests. The procedure can be viewed here: Information Handling Procedure.
The information you are looking for may already be publicly available, therefore we would encourage you to review the section below.
Publication Scheme
The Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002 requires Scottish public authorities to produce and maintain a publication scheme. Authorities are under a legal obligation to:
publish the classes of information that they make routinely available
• tell the public how to access the information and what it might cost
The Scottish Road Works Commissioner (the Commissioner) has adopted the Model Publication Scheme 2015 produced by the Scottish Information Commissioner.
