RSS feeds for your website

You can use our RSS feeds on your own website, to provide useful and dynamic content to your users. However, this is subject to our terms and conditons.

If you use one or more of our feeds, please credit the information by placing the Highways Agency logo on the same page. Please also provide a link to our homepage.

A good example of how to use our RSS feeds on your website along with guidelines on how to use the HA branding, please see our best practice example image.

The exact mechanism by which you use these feeds to add content to your website will depend on the technical architecture you use to run your website. As such, we are unable to take detailed technical questions about your individual setup. As general guidance, we would ask that you refresh the feed no more often than once a minute, as doing so more frequently will not result in any more timely information, and will place a substantial additional load on our servers, slowing down the service for everyone. Please ensure any proxy servers that your web server is located behind do not cache the contents of these feeds. This will result in new information taking a large amount of time to appear on your site.

We reserve the right to discontinue, alter or interrupt our RSS feeds at any time and without warning. We try to make sure the feeds are as accurate as possible, and kept as frequently updated as possible.
