Permits and rules in Mildenhall
Suffolk County Council is the highway authority for Mildenhall: in two-tier Suffolk, roads are run by the county council, not West Suffolk. 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.
In and around Mildenhall, the A11 and A1065 carry most of the through traffic. Busy primary routes often come with time-of-day restrictions, so it pays to plan the method and the hours together.
