Road marking requests

 
The Council is responsible for installing new markings on public roads and streets in the borough that are not red routes. It  and for maintaining existing markings on these roads.

If you would like a advisory road marking to encourage people not to park in front of a crossover, the Council will paint it for you.

What does it cost?

A charge is made to paint a new white line, known as an information bar, on the road in front of a crossover.

It costs £44 and the charge is reviewed annually.

There is no charge to reinstate existing lines.

How do I apply?

Anyone with a crossover can apply for the service by email, telephone or in writing.

If the site of the line is on a public street, road or highway, please contact the Council using the details on the right.

If the road is on a Council estate, contact the relevant Neighbourhood Office.

What happens next?

  • When you make a request, full details will be taken.
  • An engineer will visit the site and assess the request, taking into account a number of factors including the location and proximity to a road junction.
