What we are doing
The new railway will pass under the A45 as it approaches the new interchange station. This requires significant work to the road and its adjoining slip road known as ‘East Way’.
Before these works can take place, a number of utilities need to be moved and diverted to make sure that our works do not have an impact on the supply.
Between the 20 February and 30 June, the team will be working on the drainage that is in part of the footpath. To ensure pedestrians still have a safe route, we will narrow the carriageway and divert the footpath on to the road behind a safety barrier.
From the 25 February until 12 April the team will need to work in the carriageway in order to divert an electricity cable. To avoid diverting traffic, we will place three-way lights on the East Way, these lights will only be operational during our working hours of 8am until 3:30pm.
