Demonstrations and parades

We may close roads to allow events or parades to take place within North Somerset.

This is usually only done under special circumstances and we require at least six weeks notice and up to three months in some cases to close any routes.

Roads can closed off to general traffic by using a traffic regulation order which are granted with the written agreement of the police.

However, we do not deal with road closures for demonstrations where organisers must contact the police for permission.

All costs involved in the closure of roads are borne by the event organisers.

For further information contact our Streets and Open Spaces service.
