It also increases costs for homeowners who have to pay management companies to maintain their roads, alongside full council tax that would ordinarily cover those costs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGovernment must address these wider barriers to delivery and create a consistent, transparent highway adoption process, so that planning permissions can translate into the homes the country needs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The report can be <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hbf.co.uk\/research-insight\/slow-lane-to-adoption-2026\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">read in full here.<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>These issues extend to other infrastructure<\/h3>\n<p>In October last year, the HBF released research finding that in the last decade, just 10% of new build infrastructure had been adopted by local authorities, leaving 90% to be managed by private companies.<\/p>\n<p>This was especially true for new sewers and sustainable drainage systems (SuDS), where 97% and 98% remained unadopted by local authorities years later.<\/p>\n<p>Roads are generally not adopted until sewers are, compounding the issue.<\/p>\n<p>More information can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/vast-majority-new-build-infrastructure-not-adopted-by-public-bodies-say-hbf\/156410\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">be found here.<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Home Builders Federation has released new research calling for government support to boost UK road adoption.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":32,"featured_media":165604,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[304],"tags":[276,173241,572,806],"stakeholder_rel_tag":[],"contributor_rel_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-165601","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-planning-construction-news","8":"tag-government","9":"tag-hbf","10":"tag-housebuilding","11":"tag-road-improvements"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.9 (Yoast SEO v26.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>UK road adoption policy needed, say HBF<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The Home Builders Federation has released new research calling for government support to boost UK road adoption\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/uk-road-adoption-policy-needed-say-hbf\/165601\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"UK road adoption policy needed, say HBF\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The Home Builders Federation has released new research calling for government support to boost UK road adoption\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/uk-road-adoption-policy-needed-say-hbf\/165601\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Planning, Building &amp;
