Temporary Road Closure
Licence Summary
Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council can make a Temporary Traffic Regulation Order (TTRO) when it is necessary to prohibit or control traffic and pedestrians along the highway. TTROs can be applied to roads, footways or public rights of way.
Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council can make a TTRO to cover planned situations, or issue an Urgent Notice if regulation is needed without delay and retrospectively for emergency situations. TTROs are normally used to allow essential or emergency works to be carried out on the highway, typically installation of, or maintenance works to, services such as gas, electricity, water, events etc.
The process of arranging a TTRO requires that an application be made to Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council for approval. Once the Order has been approved and made enforceable it is the responsibility of the applicant to ensure all the correct traffic management systems are in place.
Eligibility Criteria
TTROs can be made by Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council when it is necessary to prohibit or control vehicular and / or pedestrian traffic along a highway because of planned works on or near the road.
