Traffic Management on Lichfield Rd and Marsh Lane, Whittington

What we are doing

**Update**

The work we will be doing

To enable the construction of the new railway we will need to divert utilities, create accesses to our working areas and set up satellite compounds. We will be diverting a gas main on the Lichfield Road and completing some site clearance works. During this period we will also construct a new temporary access at the junction of Marsh Lane which will be used to create a haul road and a compound, to support the construction of a new underbridge. This underbridge will allow the railway to cross over the Lichfield Road.

How we will affect you

To carry out our works safely we will:

• Close Lichfield Road and Marsh Lane for four weeks. The closures will start Monday 15 August and will finish Sunday 11 September 2022.

Access to properties will be maintained throughout these closures.

• We will follow these closures by having temporary traffic lights at this location for five weeks. The traffic lights will be in place from Sunday 11 September to Sunday 16 October. The closure and traffic lights will be in place 24 hours a day.

• Throughout these works, our working hours will be 8am until 6pm.
Access to properties along Lichfield Road and Marsh Lane will be maintained.
