Traffic Regulation Orders

A traffic regulation order (TRO) is a legal change to the rules of the road, under the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984.

Orders enforce traffic and parking restrictions, such as:

Changes can either be permanent, such as adding a new loading bay, or temporary, such as closing the road for an event.
