Permit scheme for street works and roadworks
Part 3 of the Traffic Management Act 2004 and The Traffic Management Permit Scheme (England) Regulations 2007 gives local authorities the powers to design and operate a permit scheme to improve the management of work in the street undertaken by highway authorities and utilities companies.
We use these powers to run a permit system for roadworks and street works. This means that most road or street works need permission before they can start, whether they are done by utility companies or highway authorities themselves.
