What we are doing
Upcoming utility surveys and pothole repair
We recently informed you that we will be carrying out overnight weekend utility trial hole surveys and pothole repairs on Wolseley drive via Bromford Lane. This work will now be starting from Saturday 9 September 2023 and will be complete on Monday 11 September.
To complete these trial hole inspections, we will use a vacuum excavator which uses compressed air to loosen or agitate the ground. The loosened material is then removed using the vacuum on the machine creating a hole. At times we will also use hand digging tools to excavate the trial holes. Once the surveys are carried out, we will backfill and reinstate all the trial holes.
We do not expect this activity to cause high levels of noise or vibration.
Lane closure on Bromford Lane – Northbound
To be able to carry out these inspections safely and effectively, we will need to put in place a lane closure on Bromford Lane. Access to properties, businesses and bus stops will be maintained throughout.
Please see dates below when traffic management will be in operation:
• Saturday 9 September 8.00pm to 1.00am Sunday 10 September
• Sunday 10 September 08.00 pm to 5.00am Monday 11 September
