Apply for the temporary closure of a public right of way
If you are carrying out works on or affecting a public right of way you need to apply for a Temporary Closure Order under Section 14 of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984.
We require eight weeks' notice in order to process your application.
It is only possible to grant a closure for up to 6 months but the order may be extended with the approval of the Department for Transport where applicable.
There is a fee chargeable at the rate current at the time of application plus actual advertising costs. Advertising costs will vary depending on which local newspaper is used.
