What we are doing
To enable the new railway to pass under Waste Lane, the road will have to be realigned over a new bridge before the existing bridge is demolished. Last year, a number of trees were removed to make way for the approaches to the new bridge. We now need to close the road for a week to remove the stumps.
This is a complex operation as the tree roots are potentially wrapped around important utilities that are buried in the verge. For that reason, it will not be possible to allow pedestrians and cyclists through the closure.
The road will be closed all day and all night from 6am on Monday 17 February until 5pm on Friday 21 February.
