Constructors Blocking Off Pavements

Do constructors have to obtain permission to block off pavements outside where they are working? Those working at the old Macs yard on Cowbridge seem to block off the pavement at the slightest whim (for no apparent reason as far as I can see). Crossing Cowbridge road with all the traffic it carries is difficult enough as it is. I understand that it might occasionally really be necessary for pedestrian safety to close such a path, but this seems to be happening really often.

you try pushing a buggy down there, finding out the pavement is closed and having to manoevre between tightly parked cars.... you take your lives into your own hands...

It seems that developers can do whatever they like. The current traffic mayhem in the Mead Lane area is caused by Higgins taking over the whole of Mill road to build their hideous-prison like Riviere yuppy ghetto.
