If this information can't be readily included in your regular 'traffic and travel' emails and facebook posts etc, then I'd like to make a formal freedom of information request.

1. Can you please provide more information on the type of surface dressing you are applying to roads in terms of whether it's quiet and environmentally friendly? As we become more and more built up, there is more and more traffic, and more and more noise caused by the tyres of these vehicles on the road surface
An explanation of the use of surface dressing in carriageway asset management is given in the Wokingham Borough Transport Asset Management Plan, which is available on the Wokingham public website at: https://www.wokingham.gov.uk/roadworks-and-outdoor-maintenance/roadworks-and-road-maintenance/highways-maintenance-management-plan/?assetdet91f252ff-550d-4cfa-a838-92ef2cb5f83c=276329

Where surface dressing is stated to be a standard option for renewal or replacement (planned maintenance) of carriageways.

2. Please provide me with the tech spec of surface dressings you have applied over the last 5 years and which roads they've been applied to across Wokingham (I assume these records exist from tender documents and invoices).
Details as far as available are provided in the attached Excel table. Please note that no technical specifications for surface dressing are available for financial year 2017-18. No surface dressing was carried out in financial year 2016-17.
