Team-based road maintenance is aimed at preventing or slowing down the deterioration and damage to the road. It consists of three types of activities, which are carried out by maintenance teams throughout the year.
The first type of maintenance activities is aimed at cleaning and clearing the different road elements to avoid blockages and ensure they work properly, thus avoiding damage to the road from occurring.
The second set of maintenance activities consists of minor repairs to damaged road elements aimed at avoiding more serious damage from occurring to the road.
The third set of maintenance activities consists of the creation of simple road protection measures where these do not yet exist, aimed at safely guiding water away from the road and avoiding the collapse of road shoulders and slopes.
