Updates

  • Thank you for contacting National Highways about graffiti.

    We aim to remove or cover offensive graffiti within 24 hours of our inspection. Non-offensive graffiti is dealt with under planned cyclical works and can take longer.

    We will arrange for our local inspector to look at this on their regular safety inspection of the route.

    Kind regards

    National Highways
