What Are Section 38 & 278 Works?
Key agreements when a development impacts a public highway, Section 38 covers the adoption of new roads by a local authority. Section 278 allows developers to make changes or improvements to existing highways. Both are crucial for gaining planning approval and ensuring long-term access and safety.
