What we are doing
As we prepare for the construction of the Banbury Road Overbridge, it is necessary to remove vegetation from the roadside, in the areas where new roads will be built.
Prior to any vegetation removal, an ecologist will complete a detailed survey of the area to be cleared. Any protected species found to be present will be recorded and the vegetation will be left undisturbed with the appropriate buffer zone established.
For the safety of road users and our staff, a section of Banbury Road will be closed from 8am to 6pm, from Monday 13 February to Sunday 19 February 2023 with a diversion in place. This is expected to be the maximum duration and the road may open earlier.
Prior to the above closure, we will also be carrying out some localised vegetation clearance along Wormleighton Road. Temporary traffic lights will be in operation on Wormleighton Road between 8am and 4pm from Monday 6 February to Sunday 12 February 2023.
