We have to close roads to provide enough room for repairs to be carried out safely.
Depending on the road width and nature of the site, this may involve a road closure with local diversions and/or traffic lights or "stop/go" boards.
During the roadworks, vehicles will not be able to park on the road.
Access to properties and businesses within the roadworks site will be available subject to ongoing operations.
Our staff are on site to answer questions and to help you get in or out of the roadworks site safely using the right route through our works.
However, access to your property may be temporarily unavailable for about 15 to 20 minutes (for example, if we are laying a new surface where you need to drive).
We understand that businesses need to know that customers can still visit. So, where appropriate we will display information saying "Business open as usual".
Other services are notified of planned roadworks, for example your local council for bin collections.
Access would immediately be made available to any emergency vehicle.
