Events on the highway

Events on the public highway, such as parades and walking days are an important part of the cultural life of the borough.

We will support events on the highway if the procedures outlined below are followed to ensure traffic management and road safety implications are fully addressed.

The minimum notice for events on the highway is 3 months.
