HS2 Works Notification: Road closure, Steeple Claydon to Twyford Road

What we are doing

As part of our continued preparatory works, we will be fully closing a section of road known as the Steeple Claydon to Twyford road.

We are required to fully close the road known as the Steeple Claydon to Twyford Road for the duration of the works. This is for the safety of road users and our staff. Main points regarding the road closure and works:

• Access will be maintained for local residents and utility services will not be affected;

• Commence temporary utility diversion works and tie-ins, this work is to move the existing utilities from the highway to allow the new bridge to be constructed;

• Steeple Claydon to Twyford Road diversion, we plan on commencing these works mid-April, we need to construct a new highway to the north to temporarily divert the traffic from the Overbridge works area, this means the road isn’t closed for a long duration whilst we complete the west street overbridge works;

• Steeple Claydon to Twyford overbridge, we plan on commencing this mid-2022 to begin the structural works for the new bridge, by closing the road we can complete the temporary diversion and commence these works;

• Crossings, we are constructing multiple signal controlled crossing points where our internal road network meets the local highway

The Steeple Claydon to Twyford Road will be fully closed, 24 hours a day, from Monday 21 March to September 2022, with a diversion in place.

Due to circumstances outside of our control, such as weather, these dates may be subject to change.
