Type of closure

Hard - road closure being where a positive blocking item (usually another vehicle) is in place to physically prevent a vehicle passing the closure point. A hard closure would normally be used where either a high-profile closure is taking place (for example Remembrance Day) or when the threat level calls for it.

Soft - road closure being where barriers and a sign are used.
