What we are doing
We have carried out ground penetrating radar and topographical surveys which are above ground. Our next step is to do further surveys to help us inform future construction design. This work involves pavement coring, bore holes, trial pits on and off the highway. We will excavate below ground to provide us with samples and allow us to view the structure and record the layout of land.
To carry out this work safely we will need temporary traffic lights during the day and night closures on the A525 Newcastle road between the A51 carriageway and Manor Road heading towards Madeley. The traffic management will only be required when our work is being carried out otherwise the road will remain open, and the traffic management will be removed from site.
When the work will take place
These works will now take place from Monday 9 January to Friday 17 February 2023. Please note that all our planned roadworks may be subject to change due to weather conditions or unforeseen circumstances.
We will work on Monday 9 January to Friday 17 February 2023 with a full road closure on the A525 Newcastle Road up to Manor Road during the night from 7pm to 5am.
