Temporary traffic regulation orders (TTROs)
Planned street works which can't take place under a lesser form of traffic management need to have a temporary traffic regulation order in place. Temporary orders are made under the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 and once in place can be enforced.
Restrictions that can be introduced under a temporary order include:
- road closures
- one way routes
- speed limits
- Prohibition of parking
