Two stretches of road of more than 600m are among the latest planned road 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 roads in Abbots Langley and Watford to allow works to be carried out.
The portal is used to access upcoming and recent information about various restrictions and applications.
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.
The portal has also been used in pursuance of the 1925 Trustee Act, regarding the distribution of the estates of two people who have died.
Here are five notices we’ve rounded up which could affect people in the Watford area.
Langley Lane, Abbots Langley – temporary closure and waiting restrictions
Herts County Council is intending to make an order to prohibit vehicles from using Langley Lane, Abbots Langley from its junction with College Road south eastwards to its junction with the South Way/Abbey Drive roundabout, a distance of approximately 642m, except for access to allow works to be carried out.
Additionally, all vehicles will be prohibited from waiting at any time on both sides of this length of road while the works are taking place.
If made, this order will come into force on May 5.
