Local rules
Road works in Scottish Borders
Scottish Borders Council is the highway authority here. Road works in Scotland are noticed on the Scottish Road Works Register under the New Roads and Street Works Act 1991, and the Scottish Road Works Commissioner oversees how they are co-ordinated. The road authority sets the notice it needs for your type of works.
Main roads across Scottish Borders include the A1, A7, A68, A697, A698 and A6091. Work on these usually needs signals or lane closures, often off-peak.
We also cover the neighbouring areas of Northumberland, East Lothian, Midlothian and South Lanarkshire.
