Permits and rules in Finsbury Park
Hackney Council is the highway authority for Finsbury Park: the borough runs local roads, while Transport for London runs the red routes. Red routes, the main roads on the Transport for London Road Network, need TfL's agreement instead. 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.
The A1, A10, A102, A104, A107 and A201 pass through or close to Finsbury Park. Busy primary routes often come with time-of-day restrictions, so it pays to plan the method and the hours together.
Around 14,000 people live in Finsbury Park. On busier streets, keeping footways open and queues short matters as much as the works themselves.
