What we are doing

The green tunnel at Chipping Warden consists of precast concrete segments, which are manufactured offsite in a UK factory. They fit together to form the arches of the tunnel. Our standard size segments follow our published delivery route from the M40.

On occasion, larger sections require an alternative route, suitable for abnormal loads. This route is illustrated in the map on the next page.

Some abnormal loads will come under Police escort for part of their journey from Daventry, via the A361 southbound. There may be some short delays, please follow the directions of the Police escort.

These sections will be delivered on weekdays as required until the completion of the green tunnels.

This is subject to local authority consents and approvals.
