What we are doing

We will soon begin receiving deliveries of pre-cast concrete beams in preparation for the main construction of the A41 realignment. These beams will form parts of the bridge which will carry the A41 over the top of the HS2 trace.

Some of these beams will be up to 30m in length and therefore will be classed as abnormal loads which means that we must ensure we are delivering them safely with the appropriate amount of traffic management if required.

We will be carrying out a trial run in November 2022 to determine that we have in place the best possible route for the delivery of the concrete beams.

Dates when these deliveries are planned:

  • Monday 22 November from 8pm – The trial run for the beams will take place.
  • December 5 from 8pm – We anticipate the deliveries for the concreate beams to commence.

We will continue to receive deliveries intermittently through to 2025 as we progress with the structures in the area.

Wherever possible, we will minimise the impact on all highway users by co-ordinating deliveries to avoid peak traffic times and will work with the haulier to provide the best possible routes to site.
