Highways - scaffolding and hoarding

Service Outline

Scaffolding and hoarding, which encroaches or projects over the highway, requires a licence.

When carrying out building work/maintenance or demolition of any part of a property, which is adjacent to the road (carriageway, footpath or alley), safe walking zones must be provided at ground level.

Get information about scaffolding and hoarding licences, notifications, permits or registration and apply online or make a complaint.
