One Network step-by-step instructions

Step 1

Find the location of the works you wish to check using our resurfacing and surface dressing pages.

You can also find a location by entering a street name, parish, ward, district or local authority in the 'Where do you want to go?' box, or by USRN or works reference number.

Step 2

Copy the USRN for that specific scheme and paste into 'Search Locations'. You can also use longitude/latitude coordinates should you have them to hand.

Search and date options field

Search and date options

  • Search by location, date, works ref, USRN, plan ID or longitude/latitude
  • Date ranges include today, next two weeks, next three months, next year
  • There's also a calendar date picker to allow you to choose specific date ranges
  • Geolocation allows the map to identify your current location
