What we are doing
We are progressing with our work on the A422 and will now be completing two phases of work this Autumn and Winter. During the first
phase, we will be working on the new temporary diversion and will be carrying out drainage and utility diversion works.
To do this safely, we will introduce temporary traffic management on the A422 in the form of two-way traffic lights during our normal working hours, Monday to Saturday.
We will be monitoring the timing of the lights as well as the traffic flow on the A422. Where practical, we will make improvements and
adjustments to the lights as required.
During the second phase, we will be tying in the new road and roundabout to the A422 ready for it to be opened up to traffic. These
works will include the installation of lighting and signage, resurfacing and white lining. For reasons of safety, these works will require full 24-hour road closures of the A422 over two weekends in December.
The A422 will have traffic management Monday to Friday from 8.00am to 6.00pm and Saturdays 8.00am to 1.00pm week commencing Monday 29 August 2022 into early 2023. Where works allow, we will remove traffic management when it is not required.
A section of the A422 will be closed from 8.00pm Saturday 10 December to 6.00am Monday 12 December 2022
As a contingency should there be delays to our works, a section of the A422 will also be closed from 8.00pm Friday 16 December to 6.00am Monday 19 December 2022.
