What we are doing

South Staffs Water will be carrying out the diversion of an existing water main.

All works will be undertaken within the carriageway, near to the junction of A5127 Burton Road and Thompson Way close to the A38 northbound slip road.

In order to carry out the work safely, the existing traffic lights will be temporarily replaced with four-way lights will be in place for the duration of the works.

The work is planned to start on 26 February 2024 and is expected to last until 12 April 2024. All the works will be undertaken between the hours of 8.00am to 6.00pm Monday to Friday and 8.00am and 1.00pm Saturday.

Once the Burton Road/Thompson Way phase is complete, then the water main diversion will continue within the existing HS2 site.

The majority of vehicles being used for these works will be transit van size work vehicles, with some machinery being delivered to site using Large Goods Vehicles (LGV).

We do not anticipate the level of these traffic movements will have any significant impact on the local road network.

We have designed our works to avoid disruption to the water supplies of our customers.
