The closure of a stretch of road of almost a mile long is among the latest planned toad closures in the Watford area.
Herts County Council has used the Public Notice Portal to publish its intention to make an order to temporarily close a 1,500-metre section of Prestwick Road, in South Oxhey, to allow works to take place.
The portal is used to access upcoming and recent information about various restrictions and applications.
The county council has also signalled its intention to close roads in Watford and Chorleywood to allow roadworks to be carried out.
All temporary closure orders and other restrictions are valid for up to 18 months from the date they come into force, but restrictions will only apply at times shown on signs at or near the relevant locations.
Here are five notices we’ve rounded up that could affect residents in the Watford area.
