Street work permit scheme


North East Lincolnshire Street Work Permit Scheme

The North East Lincolnshire Street Work Permit Scheme is intended to deliver public benefits by minimising the inconvenience and disruption caused by road works to all road users.

Anyone intending to carry out work on the highway must apply for a permit which sets out how the work must be undertaken to minimise disruption. This includes works by utility companies and works carried out by North East Lincolnshire Council and its partners. It does not include activities such as builders’ skips and scaffolding.

The North East Lincolnshire Permit Scheme came into effect on the 1 July 2021.
