Local rules
Road works in Westmorland and Furness
Westmorland and Furness 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 Westmorland and Furness include the M6, A6, A65, A66, A590, A591, A593, A595, A684 and A685. Work on these usually needs signals or lane closures, often off-peak.
We also cover the neighbouring areas of Northumberland, Cumberland, County Durham, North Yorkshire and Lancashire.
