What we are doing

Extended working hours

We are currently working to protect and upgrade the gas main below the A40 Western Avenue between Alperton Lane and Hanger Lane Gyratory.

In order to work as efficiently as possible, we may work extended hours from Wednesday 31 July 2024. We currently work from 8am to 6pm Monday to Friday and 8am to 1pm Saturday.

If we extended, the hours the new times would be from 8am to 10pm Monday to Friday and 8am to 1pm Saturday. As soon as we have confirmation, we’ll let you know if this is going ahead.

Overnight slip road closure
Due to phase changes, on Wednesday 31 July, from 11pm to 5am the Westbound entry slip road will be closed from Hanger Lane.

During these hours, traffic will be diverted east onto the A40 up to Gypsy Corner and returned through the tunnel back towards Hanger Lane.

We will continue working with utility providers, Transport for London and Ealing Council to coordinate works on the local road network, wherever possible.
