A popular village music festival wants more people to be able to attend while a number of roads in Watford are set to be shut for roadworks.

The organisers of Croxfest's application to increase the attendance at the free event in September can be seen in the Public Notice Portal, which is used to access all of the upcoming and recent information about various restrictions and notices.

The portal also carries details of the orders made by Herts County Close to prohibit drivers from using several roads across Watford while works are carried out.

Here are five notices we’ve rounded up which could affect residents in Watford, Croxley Green and Northwood.
