Permits and rules in Uttoxeter
Staffordshire County Council is the highway authority for Uttoxeter: in two-tier Staffordshire, roads are run by the county council, not East Staffordshire. 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.
Primary routes through Uttoxeter include the A50 and A518. 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 Uttoxeter. On busier streets, keeping footways open and queues short matters as much as the works themselves.
