Local rules
Road works in Reading
Reading 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 Reading include the M4 and A33. Work on these usually needs signals or lane closures, often off-peak.
We also cover the neighbouring areas of Wokingham, Oxfordshire, Bracknell Forest and Hampshire.
