What we are doing
Road closure on Chase Road
Throughout 2021 and early 2022, we carried out a series of ground investigations on Chase Road. These investigations helped us to understand the locations of utilities services below the ground and how to best protect them while we build the new railway. We now need to carry out works to protect the utility services below Chase Road ahead of future tunnelling works. These works will consist of upgrades to existing utility services, diversion of utilities and installation of new ducts and connections.
Due to the location of the utility services below the road, Chase Road will be closed to vehicles in both directions from 29 April to early October 2022 between Sunbeam Road and the junction with Victoria Road. A diversion route will be in place. Pedestrian access on Chase Road will be maintained during the works. The works will be completed in various phases. A map showing the location of the closure, phases and diversion route is included on the following pages.
To carry out the works as quickly and safely as possible, we have agreed with Ealing Council that works can take place up to 24 hours a day on Mondays to Fridays and between 8am to 9pm on Saturdays and Sundays. We may not be working at all times during the above.
We will be digging temporary trenches along Chase Road to access the utilities services below ground. We will then backfill and relay the tarmac once works have been completed.
Noisy works and activities that may cause more disruption will not be permitted between 6pm and 8am.
