Illegal road signs

We work to keep our roads safe by removing unauthorised signs from the highway.

We can prosecute anyone who puts up a sign without our consent and remove those which do not comply with our policies without notice.

However, charities who wish to publicise events may erect a sign with our permission.

We also advise parish and town councils if a sign location is unsuitable.

We store the removed signs for three months and charge for their return to their owners.

For more information download our illegal road signs service standards or contact our Streets and Open Spaces team.
