Drivers are set to be prohibited from making turning manoeuvres at a major Watford road junction while roadworks are carried out.
Herts County Council has published its intention in the Public Notice Portal to introduce temporary traffic management measures at the St Albans Road junction with Station Road and Langley Road.
The portal is used to access upcoming and recent information about various restrictions and applications.
The council is also planning temporary road closures in Watford, Abbots Langley, Chorleywood and Sarratt to allow works to take place.
All temporary road 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 which could affect residents in the Watford area.
