Permits and rules in Wood Green
Haringey Council is the highway authority for Wood Green: the borough runs local roads, while Transport for London runs the red routes. Red routes, the main roads on the Transport for London Road Network, need TfL's agreement instead. 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 Wood Green, the A1, A10, A107, A406, A503 and A1100 carry most of the through traffic. 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 28,000 people live in Wood Green. On busier streets, keeping footways open and queues short matters as much as the works themselves.
