What we are doing

In September we opened the realigned A361 over the Chipping Warden Green Tunnel. Following a period of use, we have carried out further safety inspections and as a result we will be making some minor changes near the roundabout. We will carry out these works on Friday 5 December to Sunday 7 December 2025, 8pm to 6pm, 24 hours.

Night works, involving additional lighting and some noise from use of machinery

To support traffic flows through the temporary traffic lights required to complete this work, a section of the old A361 between the roundabouts will be closed. Access to Chipping Warden village will be maintained via Banbury Road.

Night works, involving additional lighting and some noise from use of machinery.

HS2 is undergoing a comprehensive reset to ensure it can be built efficiently and for the lowest reasonable cost. This work is being carried out in stages and will be completed in 2026. We will provide you with updates on the reset and what this means for our plans to build the railway in your area.
