A board licence

Middlesbrough has much to offer by way of creating an ambiance that makes the town attractive to visitors and residents alike. We aim to help businesses thrive by allowing the use, where and when it is appropriate to do so, of good quality advertising signs and displays of goods on the public highway.

If you wish to display such an advertising sign (commonly known as an A board), you'll need to apply for a licence. Before you apply, you should read the A board application guidance. You can check the full list of charges for highway licences to find out how much the licence will cost.
