Dear Ms McNaughton

 

Further to your e-mail below, requesting information under the Freedom of
Information Act 2000, I have responded to your request under the
Environmental Information Regulations 2004 as follows:

 

I would like to submit a Freedom of Information request for you to provide
me with a full list (in a machine-readable format, preferably Excel) of
highways maintainable at public expense (including adopted roads) in
torfean .In addition, I would also like to request a complete list of
private roads and highways within the Borough. Finally, if available, I
would like a list of roads and property maintained by Network Rail within
the Borough

 

 

We do not have a list of highways in Torfaen, the information is held on
electronic and paper plans and individual record cards. The electronic
copy is held in the Reception area at Ty Blaen Torfaen, Panteg Way, New
Inn, Pontypool NP4 0LS and is free to view. However unfortunately due to
the current situation with COVID 19 the plans are not available. In normal
circumstances the reception area is manned in the morning from 8.30 until
1pm and therefore should you wish to view the record after 1 pm then I
would advise that you make a prior appointment to ensure a member of staff
will be there to assist you should it be necessary.

 

I can confirm that we have no duty to keep a list of Private Streets and
we do not hold information in relation to roads and property maintained by
Network Rail within the Borough

 

For your information there is a website which publishes information called
find my street which may be of use to you.
