Highway design guidance for developers

Our guidance and specification documents provide you with information for the design of new residential or commercial roads and their associated works, they should also be read in conjunction with the Government’s Manual for Streets documents.

The following information sheets have been produced by us and can help you through the highway and transportation side of the planning application process.

Higher classification of roads must be designed in accordance with the Design Manual for Roads and Bridges using the predicted traffic flows for those roads.
