Who is responsible for clearing up a road spillage?
Responsibility for cleaning the road surface to restore its conditions lies with the person who allowed the spillage to happen in the first place.
In certain circumstances, particularly in the interests of road safety, DfI Roads may carry out whatever operations are necessary to restore the road condition themselves and afterwards may seek to recover costs from the offender if possible.
It is an offence for anyone to allow any solid or liquid matter to be deposited onto the road surface. Allowing spillages to happen can be potentially dangerous to motorists and pedestrians, and possibly hazardous to the environment.
Where offenders can be identified, they will be instructed to take whatever steps are necessary to restore the road condition. The police may be notified and, if appropriate steps are not taken, the police may consider taking further action.
