 HIGHWAY EXCAVATION & ROAD OPENING ( New Roads  and Steet Works Act 1991 NRSWA), SEWER CONNECTIONS.

If your drain line leading from your property to its connection to the main sewer is damaged then a Road Opening Licence will be required to undertake the highway excavation. You are normally responsible for this section of pipework and often the main sewer is located in the public highway outside your property.

MTM are Street Works Accredited Contractors and can therefore undertake these works on your behave or directly for your  drainage insurance company. We can carry out new sewer  connections, see (new sewer connection).

A Road Opening Licence to excavate in the highway normally requires a 28 day notice period following submission of the application. All necessary paperwork will be carried out for you.
