Step 1 - How to submit your traffic management application
You must make your application electronically using our map.
How to use our reporting form
To track progress on your enquiry, you can log in to or register for a BRUM account.
1. Start your report
Look at the map to begin.
The map will show a 2-mile area around Birmingham city centre by default.
2. Find and plot the location
There are 2 ways to find the location.
- Use the "Search for a place" box:
- Type a postcode or road name in the search box. If you know the property number, include it too.
- Manual search:
- Explore the map and zoom in to mark the location.
On the left side of the map, you will find:
- zoom buttons - use the plus and minus buttons to zoom in and out, if you are on mobile, you can also pinch to zoom
- a find my location circle, which you can use to zoom to where you are right now
To move around the map, click or tap and drag.
Click or tap the map to plot the location. A marker will appear.
3. Submit your report
Once you have plotted the location on the map, select "Submit new enquiry" to start the form.
If you are using an older browser such as Internet Explorer 10 or earlier, the map might not appear. Try using a newer browser for the best experience.
Step 2 - How to apply for a roadworks permit
You must apply electronically using 'Street Manager'. You may also use your own permitting system as long as it has a direct API link to Street Manager.
Apply for a roadworks permit on GOV.UK
Be aware that Birmingham Traffic Management (BTM) applications and permits are accessed as one submission.
If your permit application is received before your BTM application, it will be refused. You must provide your BTM reference number in the works description of your permit.
