     Note: The New Roads and Street Works Act 1991 describes organisations that can undertake road works and street works. In England and Wales, there is a “Street Works Act (SWA)” code list that provides a complete list of organisations that have been allocated a SWA data capture code. Provision of an SWA Code identifies that an organisation has the powers and/or is regulated to undertake works in the street. The Street Works Act (SWA) Code list is maintained by GeoPlace.

1Streetworks requires every plan to identify which organisation will be undertaking the works. When making a plan, the possible organisations are picked from a list curated from this section of 1Streetworks. Your organisation has a curated list of SWA Organisations, which can be added to, edited, or removed from.
