Community

Whilst the road work authorities and the undertakers are the key players in the Scottish road works community, there are a number of bodies in place which have a valuable role. The following diagram sets out the relationships between these bodies:

Diagram showing the relationships between bodies in the Scottish road works community.

  • Scottish Ministers - are responsible for appointing the Commissioner and for the Scottish Government.
  • Scottish Government - has the responsibility for the development and procurement of any new or amended legislation required.
  • Scottish Road Works Commissioner (SRWC) - is required each year to give the Scottish Ministers a report on the performance of his functions. Also advises the Scottish Government on any requirements for new or amended legislation.
  • Policy Development Group - consists of representatives from RAUC(S), SCOTS (the Scottish Collaboration of Transportation Specialists), NJUG (National Joint Utilities Group), chair of the SRWR Management Group, Scottish Government and the Commissioner. It has a remit to take a strategic overview of road works in Scotland and advises, particularly on the need for the development of new legislation or Codes of Practice.
  • Roads Authorities and Utilities Committee of Scotland (RAUC(S)) - consists primarily of roads authorities and undertakers and provides support and advice to the Commissioner to improve the planning, co-ordination and quality of road works in Scotland.
  • Scottish Road Works Register Steering Group - assists the Commissioner (as keeper of the Register) in the development and day-to-day operational management of the Register.
  • Area RAUCs -  there are four Area RAUCs which support and advise RAUC(S). Below them are local RAUCs groups.
