National Highways Sector Schemes

Implementation

National Highways Sector Schemes that supersede existing established and recognised Certification Body Quality Management Schemes published in the Specification for Highway Works (SHW) will be fully implemented within 12 months of the new scheme being published on the UKAS web-site. Information of the transitional arrangements is normally provided in the SHW.

Notice of new National Highways Sector Schemes will normally be provided in the SHW together with anticipated publication and implementation dates of the Scheme. Implementation of totally new schemes normally takes longer than replacement of an existing scheme with typical lead in times of 18 to 24 months depending on the supply industry readiness.

Information on transitional arrangements may also be included in the individual Sector Scheme Documents.
