What we are doing
What we are doing
HS2 Ltd is proposing to make highway improvements at the Hanchurch Interchange, M6 J15, Newcastle Road and the junction with Trentham and Whitmore Road. This is to improve traffic flows during the construction of HS2. To design the changes, Balfour Beatty will need to carry out utility surveys in this area from 21 to 26 June 2022.
The majority of these surveys will take place off the carriageway at Clayton Road, Ferndown Nature Reserve and on land east of Newcastle Road. However, we also need to undertake one trial hole on Newcastle Road, south of the Trentham and Whitmore Road junction.
To carry out this work safely, we will close the northbound carriageway on Newcastle Road (south) and put five-way temporary traffic lights in place at the junction of Newcastle Road and Whitmore Road.
When the work will take place
The lane closure and five-way temporary traffic lights will be in place on Sunday 26 June 2022 between 8am to 5.30pm
We will work hard to complete the works as quickly as possible to reduce disruption.
How this may affect you
To carry out the surveys, we will hand dig a trial hole and confirm the location of utility services, there may be some low-level noise when we undertake this work.
