In England, a Section 278 agreement is a planning obligation under the Highways Act 1980 where a developer funds specified highway works as a condition of planning permission. A solicitor drafts and negotiates the deed with the local highway authority, ensures money is secured and milestones are set, and arranges registration as a charge on the land. Works typically relate to road widening, access alterations or turning lanes, tied to development milestones.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The solicitor handles drafting, negotiation of terms and guarantees, monitoring milestones and the remedies if works are not carried out, and the mechanics of registering a charging deed against the land to secure performance.
