What we are doing
HS2 Ltd is proposing to make changes to the Hanchurch Interchange at J15 on the M6, Newcastle Road, Clayton Road and the junction of Newcastle, Trentham and Whitmore Road, to improve the traffic flows during the construction of HS2.
As we continue to develop our scheme design, we need to undertake further cycle and pedestrian counts on footpaths at the Hanchurch Interchange and the surrounding roads.
To do this, we will need to install temporary CCTV cameras at the following locations:
• 2 cameras at the junction of Newcastle Road and Whitmore/ Trentham Road;
• 1 camera south of Hanchurch roundabout/ start of Newcastle Road;
• 1 camera in the existing level crossing reservation on the A500;
• 1 camera north of Hanchurch roundabout/ start of Clayton Road; and
• 1 camera opposite the footpath linking Clayton Road and Melville Court.
The cameras will help us calculate cycle and pedestrian counts. We will use this information to help us inform the design of the junction widening work.
We will put the CCTV cameras in place on existing lampposts at 8pm on Monday 22 August and remove them on Wednesday 24 August 2022. The survey will begin at midnight until midnight on Tuesday 23 August 2022.
