Traffic sensitive streets

Under section 64 of the New Roads and Street Works Act 1991 streets may be designated by the Street Authority as traffic sensitive. A traffic sensitive street is defined as one on which any work will create unacceptable delays and disruption to highway users at specified times.

In order to achieve minimum disruption an increased period of notification of works is required which may result in the Authority deciding the best time for the work to be undertaken.
