Permits and rules in Fulwell
Richmond upon Thames Council is the highway authority for Fulwell: 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 A308, A309 and A316 pass through or close to Fulwell. 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.
Fulwell is home to around 10,000 people, so works plans need to think about pedestrians, buses and deliveries as well as through traffic.
