Road and airfield construction and maintenance materials and the way standards are developed and implemented is vital to the performance of UK’s transport networks. The range of issues and variety of standards is complex and the effective distribution of information to the CIHT membership and wider Industry is seen as of great importance.
The Standards and Specifications Advisory Group (SASAG) has been established to assist the Chartered Institution of Highways and Transportation to co-ordinate and promote the activities of CIHT in relation to advice for materials and pavement design for highways, airfields and industrial purposes.
Terms of Reference - Standards and Specifications Advisory Group
Members of the group sit on a number of British Standards Institution (BSI) Committees developing standards for the industry.
The SASAG is reviewing how it can raise the visibility of documents In Progress, including at Public Comment stage.
