What we are doing

HS2 Ltd is proposing to make changes to the junction of the A515 and Wood End Lane, with further widening to Wood End Lane. This is to improve traffic flows during the construction of HS2. To design the changes, Balfour Beatty will need to carry out a survey on the Severn Trent Water utility pipe on Wood End Lane. The survey on the Severn Trent Water pipe will require the manhole cover to be removed whilst surveyors complete the work.

To do this safely, we will have a 15-minute temporary road closure on this section of Wood End Lane (at the entrance to Baskerville House) the closure will be in place for 15 minutes in each hour until the survey is completed. We do not expect to require more than one closure on this day.

The Severn Trent Water survey will take place on Friday 12 August 2022, 9.30am to 3.30pm.

How this may affect you

We will close a small section of Wood End Lane (at the entrance to Baskerville House) for up to 15 minutes on Friday 12 August 2022 between 9.30am and 3.30pm. During this time vehicles will be required to wait until the temporary closure is removed.

There will not be a diversion route in place for the 15-minute closure.

Please plan and allow extra time for your journeys during the closure.
