Working to improve your roads and footpaths

While every effort will be made to cause as little disruption as possible, such a large programme of work will inevitably cause some delays to your journeys. 

Thank you in advance for your patience and co-operation during this very busy period.

Help to keep our staff safe by slowing down as you drive through the roadworks. 

Save time, do it online: report potholes, problems with signs

You can now report a lot on our website and app? Tell us exactly where the problem is - right from your phone.  

• Report a pothole
• Report problems with pavements
• Report blocked gulleys
• Ask for a grit bin to be refilled
• Report problems with bollards and guide rails
• Report overgrown trees and hedges
• Report problems with road markings
• Report problems with a road sign
• Report problems with manhole covers
• Report problems with street lights

Roadworks carried out by other organisations

Many of the roadworks you encounter when travelling around the city won't be carried out by the city council, but by utilities companies such as water, gas or electric. 

Click here to see what roadworks are planned for your area and set up alerts for your regular routes. You can also see who is carrying out the work.

There are times when work has to be carried out as an unplanned emergency and these works may not be on the map. 

Has work been carried out recently in your area?

We need your feedback to make sure we are doing a good job and learn where there are any problems.
