❓Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: What’s the difference between S111 and S278 works?
A: Section 111 (S111) of the Highways Act allows developers to carry out works on the public highway with the council’s consent. Section 278 (S278) permits more significant improvements (e.g., new junctions or road widening) that are legally agreed between a developer and the highway authority.
Q: Who is responsible for gaining the necessary approvals?
A: At Keble Heath, we manage the entire process — from design and coordination to council approvals and final construction.
Q: Are your teams qualified to work on the public highway?
A: Yes — our operatives are NRSWA-accredited, and we ensure all works meet adoptable highway standards.
