Street naming and numbering

Overview

Street naming and numbering is a statutory function. This means we are responsible for maintaining a good standard of street nameplates, naming and numbering schemes and improving standards where necessary.

The address of a property is important for the efficient functioning of the postal and emergency services as well as for the convenience and safety of the general public.
