What we are doing
As part of our early environmental works, we are undertaking ecological surveys and roadside hedgerow maintenance on Moss Lane. These works are required to maintain safe line of sight for road traffic.
Balfour Beatty will be using a tractor and hedgerow flail, as well as manual working with hand tools near any sensitive ecological receptors.
This will form part of regular hedgerow maintenance within the wider area.
We will need to install a short duration road closure on Moss Lane at Stone, to manage the safe movement of the vehicles and people needed to carry out the hedgerow maintenance. Although we will be permitted to hold any vehicles approaching the closure for up to 15 minutes, our operatives will endeavour to open the road in a safe manner as soon as practicable.
If your journey is affected by these works, we appreciate your patience and understanding for the minor delay. We also urge you to allow
additional time for your journey as necessary.
When the work take place?
We will put the temporary road closure in place intermittently from Monday 11 September to Friday 22 September 2023 9am-5pm.
When a vehicle approaches the closure, we will then have 15 minutes to fully open the road, although we will aim to do this much quicker where possible. We can then only bring the road closure back in to place after an hour of free movement has elapsed.
