We deliver Section 278 highway works in Fulham and across West London for footway and cycleway alterations. Section 278 works are required when development impacts existing highways — new access, alterations or works on the public network. Utility congestion influences excavation routes, connection points and temporary protection around existing services. Highway authority lead times and traffic management approvals often govern programme more than construction duration.
The aim is to avoid assumptions that turn into avoidable delays once work is underway.
It is used when work needs to be planned clearly, delivered safely, and aligned with practical constraints such as access, sequencing, or condition.
The outcome is a dependable solution with fewer repeat issues and clearer next steps for owners, project teams, and facilities managers.
We provide section 278 contractor across London, including Fulham and the wider Greater London area, for typical residential and commercial project requirements.

When you might need Section 278 Contractor
Most projects start with a practical problem: recurring faults, visible deterioration, or uncertainty about the right method before committing to work.
The same service is often used during new-build and major refurbishment phases, where design choices, planning requirements, and site conditions affect what can be done safely and efficiently. In decision-stage terms, this is often where teams move from broad options into method selection, sequencing, and budget alignment.
Whether the priority is compliance, stability, or restoring normal operation quickly, early scoping usually prevents avoidable delays and rework.
