Local rules
Road works in Southwark
Southwark 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 Southwark include the A1, A2, A3, A4, A10, A11, A12, A13, A20 and A21. Work on these usually needs signals or lane closures, often off-peak.
We also cover the neighbouring areas of Lambeth, Lewisham, City of London, Tower Hamlets and Westminster.
