What we are doing

During May we have two activities taking place on the A361 near Chipping Warden. On the evening of Thursday 15 May, there will be a single lane closure outside our compound entrance, so we can make some small adjustments to the temporary bridge over the road. This will be managed by traffic lights and there may be up to 15mins of held traffic on a red light, while we work over the road.

We will also be carrying out some utility diversions along a section of the A361, near Chipping Warden, which require a weekend road
closure. The location of the work will be between the two roundabouts on the Chipping Warden relief road, with the diversion along the old section of the A316 through the village.

We will be working directly in the road to relocate the utilities, which requires the closure to remain in place overnight. In addition, we will make some repairs to the larger roundabout.

Work on the A361 road realignment will continue throughout 2025 and some additional traffic management or short road closures will be required during the coming year.

Traffic lights: 8pm on Thursday 15 May to 6am on Friday 16 May 2025.

There will be 15mins periods of held traffic on a red light while we work over the road.

Road closure: From 8pm Friday 16 May to 6am on Monday 19 May 2025, located between the roundabouts
