Planned System Maintenance - Limited Service

Sunderland City Council will be carrying out planned system maintenance from 12 noon on Friday 5th June until 7am on Tuesday 9th June. During this period, we will only be able to respond to urgent enquiries. If your enquiry is not urgent, please contact us before or after these times when full services will be available. We apologise for any inconvenience caused and thank you for your understanding.

Permanent road closures

Section 116 of the Highways Act 1980 and Section 247 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 allows the council to close roads permanently because:

  • They are not necessary
  • A better route will replace it
  • To allow a new development with planning permission to be built

If you require further information about permanent road closures, please contact the City and neighbourhood team.
