What we are doing

*Updated notice

We contacted you in May providing you with details of ground investigation and survey work taking place on and near Bromford Drive. We have reviewed our work within this area and need additional time to complete it, helping us minimise the level of vegetation clearance. Our new programme dates are:

  • Single lane closure on Bromford Drive and installation of temporary traffic lights: 24 June to 19 July
  • Footpath closures near Bromford Drive: from 20 May until 28 June.

As we continue our preparation for the construction of the Bromford Tunnel, we will be carrying out preparatory and ground investigation works, which will include drilling. This is to give us an understanding of ground conditions and to help us better plan our upcoming works.

Between Monday 24 June to Friday 19 July temporary traffic lights will be installed on a section of Bromford Drive, to enable mobilisation, and demobilisation of equipment. These traffic lights will be put in place for 24 hours a day. There will be welfare facility on Bromford Drive within our working area.
We will need to close some sections of the footpath near Bromford Drive, to ensure the safety of the public. We will install closures from Monday 20 May to Friday 19 July. In addition to the closure, we will be installing two small cabins for our staff.
Our working hours are still from 8am until 6pm. Our workforce may be on site up to an hour before and after to set up and secure our equipment.
