What we are doing

During the last 4 weeks, we have been completing tie in works to join the new alignment of Ellesborough Road into the existing carriageway. Our team have so far constructed and resurfaced the tie in points, installed safety barriers and worked with our partners to redirect utilities.

Our partners have now diverted a high voltage cable that was preventing the opening of the new alignment, and we are in a position now to divert traffic onto the new road.

Due to a further high voltage cable, that is encased in concrete in the road space, we will require a lane closure whilst we await its removal.

There will be three way traffic lights, 24 hours a day on Ellesborough Road, until our partner can move the cable and the concrete is removed.

Pedestrian and resident access will be maintained throughout this lane closure.

When will these works take place?

  • Thursday 28 March to Sunday 19 May 2024

Please note, these dates may be subject to change due to circumstances outside of our control but will be completed on or around the timings specified.
