Streetworks Permitting, Compliance & Utility Support

End-to-End Streetworks Support That Keeps Your Project Moving.

---

IMPACT Streetworks Solutions supports utilities and contractors with NRSWA permit management via Street Manager, compliance advice, safety prints, TM plans, coring, training and operational coordination. Whether you need a single Section 50 licence application handled properly or full end-to-end support across a multi-site programme of works, our team manages the process from initial permit submission through to final reinstatement sign-off — keeping projects compliant, on schedule, and free from avoidable Fixed Penalty Notices or Section 74 charges. We work alongside utilities, telecoms providers, civil engineering contractors, developers, local authorities and housing associations across England and Wales, bringing hands-on Streetworks experience to every project rather than generic consultancy advice. IMPACT is built on 15+ years of Streetworks permitting and compliance experience — so when the unexpected happens, we know exactly how to respond. From a single dropped kerb application to ongoing NRSWA compliance support across multiple sites, we scale our involvement to match what each project actually needs, without locking you into services and costs you don't need.

Our Story
IMPACT was founded on a clear observation: in the infrastructure industry, Streetworks compliance is often treated as an afterthought — a box to tick rather than a critical part of the project lifecycle.

We've worked on major infrastructure projects where the conversation always revolved around one question: "Can we get away with this?" That approach is costly. It damages relationships with local authorities. Worst of all, it puts the people doing the physical work at risk.

The reality is clear: Streetworks compliance isn't just important. It's foundational. Done right, it protects your workforce, secures your reputation, and keeps future projects on track.

That's what IMPACT exists to deliver — expert Streetworks support — from NRSWA compliance and Street Manager permitting to Section 74 mitigation — that keeps your projects moving without compromising on compliance, safety or integrity.


Our Values
🎯 Right way, every time. No exceptions.
Our clients trust us to get it right first time. From permit submission deadlines to reinstatement sign-off, we deliver on our commitments every time.

🛡 Compliance
We stay ahead of NRSWA, TMA and Street Manager updates, so your business is always protected.

🤝 Communication
Clear, honest communication between contractors, authorities and clients is at the heart of every project we support.

Highway Excavation & Utility Coordination Support
Excavating on the highway means working around buried utility apparatus that isn't always where records suggest, in coordination with other parties who may have works planned nearby. Get either of those wrong and the result ranges from a costly delay to a genuine safety incident.

IMPACT supports the excavation stage of Streetworks projects with utility coordination to identify and manage clashes with other apparatus and works, Section 171 management for apparatus diversion and protection, and safety prints for streetworks projects that give site teams a clear picture of what's underground before they dig.

NRSWA & Streetworks Training
Outsourcing Streetworks expertise makes sense for a lot of businesses — but there's also real value in building capability in-house, so your own team understands the fundamentals of permitting, compliance and reinstatement rather than treating it as a black box.

IMPACT delivers NRSWA qualification training and Streetworks awareness sessions tailored to where your team actually sits — whether that's coordinators who need working knowledge of the permit scheme, or site staff who need to understand what compliant reinstatement looks like in practice.

Core Sampling & Reinstatement Verification
A reinstatement that looks fine on the surface can still fail against SROH standards underneath — and if that failure surfaces later, during an authority inspection or a future excavation nearby, it becomes your liability, whoever carried out the original work.

IMPACT's coring services carry out independent core sampling and analysis to verify reinstatement quality objectively, rather than taking a contractor's word for it. Because the assessment is independent, the resulting report carries weight — whether you're using it to confirm your own work is sound, or to hold a subcontractor to account.

Streetworks Coordination & Section 74 Defence
Streetworks projects rarely involve just one party. Contractors, subcontractors, local authorities and clients all need to stay aligned, and when that coordination breaks down, the result is usually delay — and delay on a permitted works site means Section 74 charges.

IMPACT sits in the middle of that coordination, managing council liaison and communication so nothing falls through the gaps between parties. When works do overrun, we don't just accept the charge — we review the circumstances and build a case for mitigation or defence where the overrun wasn't reasonably avoidable.

Streetworks Permit Management
Every Streetworks project starts with the right permit, submitted the right way, at the right time. Get any part of that wrong — a missed notice period, an incomplete Street Manager submission, an incorrectly classified works category — and the consequences show up fast: Fixed Penalty Notices, Section 74 overrun charges, or a start date pushed back while paperwork is corrected.

IMPACT manages the full permitting lifecycle on your behalf. That means Street Manager notice submissions handled correctly first time, Section 50 licence applications for works on private or unadopted land, Section 184 dropped kerb and vehicle crossing applications, and immediate or emergency permits processed under the tight timescales those situations demand.

NRSWA Compliance Advisory & Streetworks Consultancy
NRSWA compliance isn't a one-off checkbox — it's an ongoing responsibility that touches everything from how reinstatements are specified to how notices are worded. Legislation and guidance change, and what passed inspection last year isn't guaranteed to pass this year.

IMPACT provides practical, working-level advisory and consultancy support: interpreting what NRSWA and SROH actually require for a specific situation, reviewing reinstatement specifications against current standards, and giving straight answers on operational questions before they become compliance problems.
