What we are doing

Right-hand turn from Hampstead Road site gate

We will install a right-hand turn out of our Hampstead Road site access gate, to enable vehicles to travel south towards Euston Road immediately after leaving the worksite and reduce the number of construction vehicles using Harrington Square as a turning loop.

We will trial this right-hand turn from May to June. Starting 3 May, we will install two pre-built traffic islands on Hampstead Road in front of our site entrance and update the road markings to indicate the right-hand turn. We will then install temporary traffic lights.

For safety, we will carry out these works at night when there is less traffic on the road. Our working hours will be 5pm to 11pm, from 3 to 6 May. These works will not be noisy and are expected to take about a week to complete. We will also carry out maintenance to the hoarding in this area, as part of these works. London Underground will also be working in this area to carry out visual surveys. We will need to temporarily remove a section of our hoarding on Hampstead Road to make way for London Underground works. London Underground will work 24 hours, day and night from 3 to 8 May.

We will temporarily close the northbound carriageway from 3 to 8 May. Traffic will be diverted to the southbound carriageway with a lane for northbound and a lane for southbound traffic. We will also temporarily suspend the southbound bus lane and bus stop W. The nearest alternative bus stops are Robert Street stop J and bus stop K near the corner of Netley Street and at Mornington Crescent underground station.

We are sorry for the inconvenience.
