A man said he was shocked to see a lorry pass three sets of road closure signs to deliver a package in Long Eaton.
Kevin Curtis shared photos of the lorry on social media following the incident in Main Street at about 10:00 today.
He wrote: "Sheer madness. Should not be in charge of articulated vehicle.
"This driver ignored three sets of road closed signs, ignored workmen, drove over barriers to get down Main Street, presumably to make his delivery on Fields Farm Road or Meadow Lane."
Marlin Industries, which owns the lorry, told the Derby Telegraph, external the incident would be investigated.

Concerns have been raised over the make-up of a panel set up to review the case of a Nottingham man found starved to death months after the government stopped his disability benefit.
Errol Graham, 57, weighed four-and-a-half stone (28.5kg) when his body was found by bailiffs who broke into his council flat to evict him in June 2018.
Marsha de Cordova, shadow minister for disabled people, told MPs the Department of Work and Pensions had agreed to look into Mr Graham's death, but the panel will consist solely of senior civil servants from within the department.
Earlier this week a DWP spokesperson confirmed the incident had been referred to its Serious Case Panel.
But Ms de Cordova told the House of Commons: "It has emerged that the panel will only consist of senior civil servants from within the Department for Work and Pensions, and it is unclear whether the panel's conclusions will be made public.
"The lack of scrutiny and independence of this panel is unacceptable."
She also called for Work and Pensions Secretary Therese Coffey to give a statement on the matter in the Commons "given the public interest and seriousness of this issue".

An "emaciated" foal is being looked after by vets after it was "rescued" from a field in Leicestershire, the RSPCA said.
Members of the public, who had been feeding the six-month-old horse, reported their concerns about his health to the animal charity.
Officers then went to the field, off Langton Road, Great Bowden, and seized the foal which was "suffering unnecessarily".
RSPCA inspector Ann Bennett said: "We are so grateful to the kind members of the public in situations like this and are pleased they were able to alert us to the poorly foal."
The charity said there were five other foals in the field that seemed to be in good health but it is not known who owns them.
It is appealing for anyone with information to contact them.
