Local rules
Road works in South Tyneside
South Tyneside 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 South Tyneside include the A19, A184, A194(M), A194, A1018, A1058 and A1300. Work on these usually needs signals or lane closures, often off-peak.
We also cover the neighbouring areas of North Tyneside, Newcastle upon Tyne and Gateshead.
