Building near a road

Building near a road requires care and effort so that the work is done with speed and up to standard. This ensures that the right safety precautions are taken and the work is carried out with minimum disruption.

This section contains information on what to do if you are building near a road. The council has regulations on this and a licence is required for the use of skips and building materials (see skips/building materials licence) as well as a licence for scaffolding and hoarding (see scaffold, hoarding, container and crane licences).

Please use the links above or on the left for more information on these licences and how to obtain them.
