Apply for a temporary road closure or restriction

To apply for a Temporary Traffic Regulation Order or Notice please download the application form.

If your application is successful, a payment request email will be sent out to advise on the total fee payable and how payment can be made.

Payment can be made online, by BACS, Bank Transfer or by credit card. Unfortunately, we no longer accept cheques for payment of either a TTRN or a TTRO.

Please do not make any payments until the payment request email is received as you will need the 6 digit reference number.
