If the requests are for new works, then you can request this online; Tell us about a road, highway or travel route issue . The enquiry will then go to the Traffic Management Team for consideration or investigation as appropriate. If works are not justified then an explanation will be provided.

Frequently asked questions

How do I apply for permanent signs to a tourist attraction?

Please refer to the Tourist Signing Policy (PDF)

The Traffic Management Team will assess any formal applications which are received.

How do I place signs to direct traffic to an event?

Please complete a Highways Contact us form (General enquiry form). Requests for temporary signing go to the Traffic Management Team, who consider the request and respond accordingly.

However, it is worth stating that normal circumstances will only permit signs off the nearest A or B class road, and when in an urban environment particularly, it would be dependent on existing directional signing.

How do I report an issue with a Road Sign?

These can be reported online (Tell us about a road, highway or travel route issue).  Enquiries will then go to Maintenance in all instances bar modification when the Traffic Management Team will be made aware of the situation.
