Wiltshire & Gloucestershire: Roadworks and how to set up alerts from 'one.network'

 

Please note the following info has been provided by Wiltshire Council but also applies to the Gloucestershire area

one.network is a great way for you to find out more about any current or upcoming roadworks in your area. You can sign-up to receive automatic email alerts that will notify you of any roadworks, temporary issues on the network and upcoming work.

The Traffic and Network Management Team coordinates and manages all roadworks on the Wiltshire network, with more than 24,000 applications for work each year. To manage this huge volume of activities, the council publishes all planned works on one.network.

To help you to use one.network, please see the following guides:

Email alerts provide information about works commencing within the selected timeframe. Daily alerts will provide information for works commencing tomorrow, weekly alerts will provide information for works commencing in the following week and monthly alerts will provide information for works commencing in the following month.

Please note one.network do not manage permits on the A36, A303 or M4. These are published by National Highways and so we do not have any control over this information.
