Permits and rules in Winchcombe
Gloucestershire County Council is the highway authority for Winchcombe: in two-tier Gloucestershire, roads are run by the county council, not Tewkesbury. 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.
Winchcombe is home to around 5,124 people, so works plans need to think about pedestrians, buses and deliveries as well as through traffic.
