Road works and closures
Road works
With miles of road network in Southend, it is important that all roadworks are coordinated effectively, to ensure the least amount of disruption. The large majority of street works performed on the highway by utilities is classified as:
- Emergency
- Urgent
- Minor
This means that we will have on average about two working hours notice of these works. However we will update the site as regularly as possible, with the intention of showing any works that may cause congestion.
