Transport minister Sadiq Khan has launched the UK's first roadwork permit scheme in Kent. The system gives a council the power to better coordinate road works and take punitive action, including fines up to £5000, when they overrun.
Sadiq Khan said: "Everyone understands that road works are necessary to keep essential infrastructure in good order, but this should not mean constant inconvenience to the travelling public. Local authorities and utility companies must up their game.
"Councils and utility companies must have a joined up approach and co-ordinate work so that disruption is kept to an absolute minimum. I am fed up with excuses about why we can't do road works better."
