What we are doing
We are constructing haul roads and accesses within Drayton Bassett. Haul roads are temporary roads provided within a working area to allow for the movement of construction materials, construction machinery and/or construction staff around the site. Haul roads are Balfour Beatty VINCI’s preferred logistical transport link, as they reduce the number of vehicle movements interfering with the existing local road network and provide the greatest possible control over works activity.
To allow our vehicles to cross Drayton Lane and to maintain the safety of road users, equestrian and pedestrians, we will create a signalised plant crossing. To enable us to commence these works we will require a temporary closure of a section of Drayton Lane.
The first phase of works began on 25 July and will be completed by 2 September. During these works we will install temporary traffic lights on a section of Drayton Lane between 8.00am to 6.00pm.
The second phase of works will be completed from 9.30am 10 October to 21 October. During these works we will install a temporary 24-hour closure of a section of Drayton Lane and a signed diversion will be in place.
Pedestrian and equestrian access will NOT be maintained during this 2-week closure.
