What we are doing
As we continue to prepare for the temporary realignment of Ellesborough Road, we need to begin connecting and diverting the existing utilities in the area.
We will need to excavate part of the road in order to divert and connect gas main pipes and a high voltage cable toward the eastern and western tie-ins of the diverted road.
Due to the nature of these works, there will be open excavations in the carriageway. As Ellesborough Road is narrow we will need to fully close the road to ensure the safety of road users and our workforce. We will maintain Pedestrian and resident throughout the closures.
The closures will take place on three occasions:
• Monday 15 May – Saturday 27 May
• Monday 19 June – Saturday 24 June*
• Monday 26 June – Saturday 1 July*
If these works finish earlier than planned, we will open the road once complete.
These dates may be subject to change due to circumstances outside of our control but will be completed on or around the timings specified. Dates provided are correct at time of publication.
*Please note due to programme implications these dates may be delayed, if dates change it will be communicated at the earliest possibility.
