Before you start

• 20 working days notice is required to process this application. Please allow for this when applying.
• The licence is valid for 6 weeks only.
• The form must be completed only by the person depositing the structure on the highway.
• All forms must be completed fully with as much information as possible. Incomplete forms cannot be accepted.
• You will need to provide evidence of Public Liability Insurance (to the value of not less than £5,000,000) for your business. It is a legal requirement to have this. Please have a copy of this ready to upload.
• The cost of this licence is £709.85. All licence and inspection fees must be paid for at the end of this form. These fees are non-refundable.
• Once we have received your application and licence fee, our highways engineer will conduct a site inspection in order to agree the granting of the licence and determine if a deposit fee is required.
• Both the licence and deposit fees must be paid before we can grant a licence. The deposit fee is refundable, provided there is no damage to the carriageway or footway during the time of working at the site.
• On approval, the licence will be posted to the address of the applicant.
• Please contact Transport for London (TfL) on 0845 600 1703 or email assetoperationslicensing@tfl.gov.uk to gain approval for works being carried out within a TFL (red route) area. Separate licences are required where work being undertaken at a property encroaches on two roads (e.g. corner properties), as they come under different licensing jurisdictions - TFL (red route) / Lambeth (all other routes).
• Please contact the Parking and Licensing Team on 0207 926 6262 to suspend parking restrictions in controlled parking zones (at a fee) if applicable to the location.
