Local rules

Road works in Central Bedfordshire

Central Bedfordshire 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 Central Bedfordshire include the M1, A1, A1(M), A5, A6, A418, A421, A505 and A4146. Work on these usually needs signals or lane closures, often off-peak.

We also cover the neighbouring areas of Bedford, Milton Keynes, Hertfordshire, Luton and Cambridgeshire.
