Spot maintenance definition
Spot maintenance means localised maintenance works carried out on short sections (typically 1 km or less) of roads in order to ensure a reasonable level of passability, and comprises of activities such as road surface repairs, embankment repairs, culvert and drainage repairs, localised road reshaping and re-gravelling, and the construction of diversions. Spot maintenance is usually done due to the excessively poor condition of a road over a short section that threatens the flow of traffic. Spot Maintenance can be used on both paved and unpaved roads.
