Permits and rules in Holbeach

Lincolnshire County Council is the highway authority for Holbeach: in two-tier Lincolnshire, roads are run by the county council, not South Holland. 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 A17 and A151 pass through or close to Holbeach. Busy primary routes often come with time-of-day restrictions, so it pays to plan the method and the hours together.

Around 11,000 people live in Holbeach. On busier streets, keeping footways open and queues short matters as much as the works themselves.
