CW&C to take part in National Highways and Transportation Public Satisfaction Survey

Local people are being asked for their views on Cheshire West and Chester Council's highways and transport services – from the condition of roads and footpaths to the quality of cycling facilities. Their answers will be compared with the views of other members of the public across England and Scotland, thanks to the National Highways and Transport Public Satisfaction survey.

Cheshire West and Chester Council is one of 112 Local Authorities to sign up to a standardised survey that will ask members of the public exactly the same questions, whether they live in Cornwall, Cumbria or Cheshire West and Chester. The survey, which is being run for the tenth year, is the largest collaboration between local authorities and offers the opportunity to compare results, share in best practice and identify further opportunities to work together in the future.

The questionnaire are being sent to a minimum random sample of at least 3,300 Cheshire West and Chester residents from 19 June, followed by a reminder. Local and national results twill be published in mid-October 2017. Since the survey is based on a sample, residents that receive a copy are being urged to take part.

Residents who receive the questionnaire can complete the survey on-line if they prefer. A link will be printed on the front of the questionnaire and they will need to enter a code before completing the questionnaire.

The results will enable Cheshire West and Chester Council to find out what people in the borough think about these important services. It gives the public an opportunity to say which services they think the Council should prioritise, and improve.
