How this may affect you
To carry out the work safely, we'll be closing roads in phases. The work areas will move progressively along the road as each section is completed. Follow the signage in place and allow extra time for your journey where necessary.
- Clear signage will be in place to guide you around the works
- Some parking suspensions and restrictions will be in place
- Pedestrian access will be maintained for all residents and businesses throughout the works
- You may notice some additional noise while we carry out the works
- There may be short periods when no work is taking place on site, for example, while we wait for test results or equipment to arrive
We’ll do our best to complete the works as quickly and safely as possible, while keeping disruption to a minimum.
