What we are doing
Location
Aston Church Road between Chartist Road and A47 Heartlands Parkway.
Duration
This will be a full road closure in both directions on Saturday 7 March 2026 and Sunday 8 March 2026 between 7.00pm and 6.00am.
What we are doing
You may be aware that Aston Church Road has recently been realigned onto a new, taller bridge to accommodate the new railway beneath it. The road has now
reopened to vehicle traffic. We now need to resurface the footpaths ahead of them opening. In order to carry these works out safely, we will need to
close Aston Church Road in both directions.
What to expect
A fully signed diversion will be in place, please see overleaf for details.
HS2 is undergoing a comprehensive reset to ensure it can be built efficiently and for the lowest reasonable cost. This work is being carried out in stages and will be completed in 2026. We will provide you with updates on the reset and what this means for our plans to build the railway in your area.
