Information on how to find out who is responsible for roadworks in your area is available via https://one.network
Staffordshire is one of many councils and utility companies which now feeds all of its works information here meaning people can view the latest updates across the county and nationally. The site lets people know where work is taking place, at what times, who is carrying it out and how it affects traffic flow. It also provides live traffic flow information, enabling people to avoid congested areas or plan more time for their journey.
We support the value of this website solution by focussing our limited resources on ensuring accuracy of the data provided, as opposed to engagement via meetings and briefings.
The nature of network planning means that at any given time of the day, plans are ‘best laid’ but they require our skilled network management team to adapt continually, accounting for road accidents/incidents (including the M6), asset failures such as gas/water leaks and power failures and many other activities that are not supported by regulatory control (developer works, abnormal load movements, etc.).
We therefore always advise a cautious approach in advising ‘what’s planned ahead’ as the reality is that this can change daily which would undermine confidence in our communications.
