Local rules
Road works in Birmingham
Birmingham Council is the highway authority here. Almost every English highway authority now runs a permit scheme under the Traffic Management Act 2004, so works on the road need a permit, applied for through the government's Street Manager service. Minor works usually need 3 working days' notice, standard works 10 and major works 3 months.
Main roads across Birmingham include the M6, A34, A38, A38(M), A41, A45, A446, A452, A453 and A4041. Work on these usually needs signals or lane closures, often off-peak.
We also cover the neighbouring areas of Sandwell, Solihull, Dudley, Warwickshire, Walsall and Staffordshire.
