If you'd like to erect a banner, bunting or Christmas lights on or over the public highway, you need to apply for a licence.

Banners on the highway will only be agreed to be placed at pre-approved and official locations above the highway that have been tested, all others will be treated as fly posting

Please read our guidance before applying.
