Traffic Regulation Orders:

Traffic Regulation Orders (TRO'S) are made in order to restrict certain actions on the public highway to ensure safety, local amenity and accessibility. They are legal documents and can only be introduced following a statutory legal process.

TRO'S (on-street) are required for many different situations:

  • Waiting and loading
  • Resident parking schemes
  • Speed limits
  • Weight and width restrictions
  • One-way streets
  • Road and footway closures

Whilst the Council makes TRO'S, enforcement is a matter for South Wales Police. For enforcement enquiries contact Merthyr Police Station (01685) 722541.

Other enquiries contact: The Traffic Management Section
