Tickton is represented locally by Tickton and Routh Parish Council, a joint council with the adjacent parish of Routh.[3] It is within the Beverley Rural ward of the East Riding of Yorkshire Council.[4] At the parliamentary level it is part of Beverley and Holderness, currently represented by Graham Stuart of the Conservative Party.
In 2015 107.8 Beverley FM was launched. This is a station specifically for the community in Beverley and all of its surrounding areas, including Tickton.[5]
In February 2023, a regional internet service provider, Connexin, installed notices on lampposts around the village, informing residents of plans to erect new telegraph poles along several streets.[6] In a parish council meeting held later in the month, residents complained the poles would be an "eyesore" not worth the promise of faster and cheaper broadband.[7]
