Permits and rules in Coatbridge
North Lanarkshire Council is the highway authority for Coatbridge: North Lanarkshire is the highway authority for local roads. Trunk roads are managed by Transport Scotland.
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.
In and around Coatbridge, the A8, A89 and A725 carry most of the through traffic. The M8, M73 and A8(M) are within a few miles. On roads like these, queue lengths decide the method: we set signal timings to keep traffic moving and suggest night or off-peak work where it helps.
Around 44,000 people live in Coatbridge. On busier streets, keeping footways open and queues short matters as much as the works themselves.
