A few things can cause this. The promoter (the council or utility company) might have submitted incomplete or late data to Street Manager. It could be an emergency that appeared with very little notice. Or it might be something in our system that needs a tweak. If you spot a gap, drop us a message — tell us the road and rough date and we'll look into it.

Roadworks Radar builds its picture from event notifications sent through Street Manager. If a closure was already in place before we started receiving data, we may have missed the original notification entirely. Very long-standing closures — ones that have been there for many months — might not appear as a result. It's a known gap that should close over time as our dataset matures. For closures that have been around a long time, your local council's website is the most reliable check.

No. Motorway works are managed by National Highways using a separate system and don't feed into Street Manager, so they won't appear here. Motorway closures tend to be well publicised in advance anyway. The works that catch people off guard are on local roads — which is what we focus on.

These won't appear here. Street Manager only covers works that promoters are legally required to notify. Emergency closures caused by flooding, local events, or short-notice council decisions go through a different process. For those, your local council's website or their social media channels are usually the quickest source.

The data comes directly from the UK Department for Transport's Street Manager — the official system councils and utility companies must use. We refresh regularly and don't modify or delay anything. Start and end dates reflect the latest information submitted by the promoter, so they can shift if the council updates them.
