What we are doing

As part of our early environmental works, we are undertaking ecological surveys and roadside hedgerow maintenance on Hoomill Lane. These works are required to maintain safe line of sight for road traffic.

Balfour Beatty will be using a tractor and hedgerow flail, as well as manual working with hand tools near any sensitive ecological receptors. This will form part of regular hedgerow maintenance within the wider area.

We will need to install short duration road closures on Hoomill Lane, to manage the safe movement of the vehicles and people needed to carry out the hedgerow maintenance. Although we will be permitted to hold any vehicles approaching the closure for up to 15 minutes, our operatives will endeavour to open the road in a safe manner as soon as practicable.

If your journey is affected by these works, we appreciate your patience and understanding for the minor delay. We also urge you to allow additional time for your journey as necessary.

We will put the temporary road closures in place intermittently from Thursday 14 September to Thursday 28 September 2023 9am-5pm.
