Where an agent of a utility provider requires to temporarily close or obstruct the public road in order to carry out their works, they must first submit an Application for Works, Activities and Events within the Public Road Reserve to us with the relevant documentation.
Under the NSW Roads Act 1993, entities are not permitted to close a road or regulate traffic on a public road, without the road authority's consent.
You'll need to supply us with the location of the activity, your risk assessment documents, and a traffic guidance scheme or traffic management plan prepared by a licenced officer.
