Street nameplate repairs

We aim to keep street nameplates in good repair and fitted in suitable positions. Please notify us of a damaged or missing nameplate

Overview

We are responsible for ensuring that street nameplates are provided, are in good repair and are fitted in suitable positions. However, in the case of new developments, it will be the developer that is responsible for the erection of the nameplates.

Damaged or missing nameplates

We will repair and maintain street name plates when this becomes necessary due to accidental damage, vandalism or normal wear and tear.

We aim to keep street nameplates in good repair. If you notice a damaged or missing nameplate let us know by using the online form below.

Request a replacement nameplate

This form has 3 and will take approximately 10 minutes to complete.

Before you start

You will need to know:

  • If the nameplate needs repairing or replacing
  • Details about what is on the sign
  • The location of the sign

Requests for new nameplate

Requests for new nameplates for roads and lanes that have not been named before should be channelled through the relevant Parish / Town Council to ensure that local people and local variations of names have been considered.
