What we are doing

We will be carrying out ground penetrating surveys to help us identify the location of buried utility services, such as gas, electric or water. These surveys are non-intrusive, we will use a machine that transmits an electromagnetic pulse into the ground. These pulses reflect off features in the ground, allowing us to collect data and to understand the depth of the buried utility services.

Along with ground penetrating surveys, we will carry out several other surveys. For the safety of both our workforce and motorists, we will put temporary traffic lights along Beaconside Road, B5066 Sandon Road, Hydrant Way and Hopton lane joining Wilmore Hill Lane while we carry out the work.

How this will affect your journey

On Tuesday 18 January to Wednesday 26 January (excluding weekends) from 7pm to 5am we need to install temporary traffic lights. These will be located on the Beaconside Road and will differ each day as we move along the carriageway between the junction of Marston lane, B5066 Sandon Road and leading on to roundabout for Hydrant Way, A518 and Weston Road. During these times, journeys make take longer than usual.

On Monday 31 January to Monday 7 February (excluding weekends) from 9am to 4pm we need to install temporary traffic lights. These will be located on B5066 Sandon Road and Hopton Lane and will differ each day as we move along the carriageway. During these times, journeys make take longer than usual.
