Local rules

Road works in Tower Hamlets

Tower Hamlets 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 Tower Hamlets include the A1, A2, A3, A10, A11, A12, A13, A20, A21 and A100. Work on these usually needs signals or lane closures, often off-peak.

We also cover the neighbouring areas of Hackney, Newham, Southwark, Greenwich, Waltham Forest and City of London.
