Permits and rules in Fairford
Gloucestershire County Council is the highway authority for Fairford: in two-tier Gloucestershire, roads are run by the county council, not Cotswold. 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.
Around 4,249 people live in Fairford. On busier streets, keeping footways open and queues short matters as much as the works themselves.
