What we are doing

In the area we are building the Greatworth green tunnel which will take the HS2 trains underground as they pass through the local landscape.  As part of our continuing construction activities a closure of some Public Rights of Way (PRoW) are required, including AN4 and AN40.

The Public Rights of Way (PRoWs) will reopen on their new alignments over the green tunnel once construction activities are completed.

AN4 will be closed from October 2025 and will reopen on completion of the Greatworth green tunnel, expected by December 2027.

AN40 has been closed since March 2024 and will reopen on completion of the Greatworth green tunnel, expected by December 2027.
