A Temporary Traffic Regulation Order must be made to allow road and/or footway closures to take place.
Obtaining a temporary road and/or footway closure is a legal process for which there will be charges involved. Any organisation planning an event which involves either having to control or exclude vehicular or pedestrian traffic from the public highway should apply for a temporary closure.
The process for applying for a road closure can be quite lengthy. There are a number of authorities, bodies, elected Members, bus companies, and, not least, the public to inform and consult.
Please allow 8 week/s in advance for a closure to be organised.
Please address your request in writing to Network Management using the details provided below.
