Permits and rules in Lutterworth

Leicestershire County Council is the highway authority for Lutterworth: in two-tier Leicestershire, roads are run by the county council, not Harborough. 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 A5, A426 and A4303 pass through or close to Lutterworth. The M1 is within a few miles. 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.

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