Temporary Signs

Temporary signs may be for public events or for new housing developments and will not be considered for events such as boot sales.
The names of sponsors/developers, telephone numbers or other contact details must not be displayed on temporary signs.
Signs must not be placed on posts supporting traffic signals, octagonal, triangular or circular signs. Temporary signs must conform to The Traffic Signs Regulation, please see the terms and conditions for full details.
