Best Practice - Vehicle Crossings With on-street parking restrictions and the ever-increasing numbers of vehicles on our roads, the numbers of requests from residents for “Vehicle Crossings” is unlikely to decrease. This document is written as a Best Practice Guidance for the avoidance of damage to the highway, any furniture upon it, or any plant above or below the ground and does not alter the need to work to legal requirements and in a safe manner. |

Best Practice - Traffic Detector Loops Traffic Detector Loops are placed in the upper layers of the road surface and are essential for the efficient operation of signalised junctions and bus lanes, enabling prioritisation of demand for busy urban routes. They are also installed at various locations for monitoring traffic flows, usually primary network roads, and for other sites for collecting vital data for traffic management schemes. This Good Practice Guide seeks to assist those who will encounter such equipment and direct them in minimising the damage caused to traffic detector loops. |
