Millions of Brit drivers warned as three new laws come into force in days

The new Labour Party government will give highway authorities the power to increase fixed penalty notice (FPN) charges for fines relating to offences under the New Roads and Street Works Act (NRSWA) 1991



The main conceptual idea of the text is that the new UK Labour government is implementing stricter regulations and higher fines for companies that violate the New Roads and Street Works Act (NRSWA). This aims to curb traffic chaos caused by streetworks and generate additional funding for road repairs. Specifically: * Increased Fines: Companies will face higher fixed penalty notices for violating the NRSWA, potentially reaching £10,000 per day for work overruns. * Funding Road Repairs: Half of the leftover lane rental money will be directed towards road repairs. * Weekend & Holiday Overrun Fees: Extra fees will be imposed for projects that extend into weekends and holidays beyond the permitted timeframe. These changes reflect the government's commitment to improving road conditions and holding companies accountable for disrupting traffic flow.
