Permits and rules in Crediton
Devon County Council is the highway authority for Crediton: in two-tier Devon, roads are run by the county council, not Mid Devon. Trunk roads are managed by National Highways.
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.
In and around Crediton, the A377 carry most of the through traffic. Work on or next to these roads usually needs signals or a lane closure rather than simple cones, and often off-peak or night working.
Around 8,152 people live in Crediton. On busier streets, keeping footways open and queues short matters as much as the works themselves.
