This bill would regulate works on certain highways in England by setting rules for weekend and bank holiday working and by requiring the removal of traffic lights and other traffic management measures after works are finished. It aims to reduce disruption from roadworks by clarifying when work can take place and ensuring temporary traffic controls are removed once projects end. The sponsor is Wendy Morton, and the bill is currently at the second reading stage in the House of Commons.
The bill is at the 2nd reading in the Commons. If it progresses, it would move to committee for detailed examination, then to report stage and third reading, and would need to pass the Lords to become law.
