What does this mean for you? During closures, a fully signed diversion will be in place. Access for emergency service vehicles will be maintained throughout. We’ll make every effort to ensure the impact on the local community and travelling public is kept to a minimum. We always aim to work to the programme, however unforeseen circumstances or adverse weather conditions may mean changes. Please accept our apologies in advance for any inconvenience this may cause.
Our work at this location to upgrade the lighting the LED’s following the completion of our surveys is likely to take place throughout 2025. We’ll write to you again at the earliest opportunity once our programme of work has been confirmed.
