These works involve replacing damaged sections of the stone parapet.
When do they start?
Work will take place between Monday 29 July 2024 and Friday 9 August 2024 between 9am and 4:30pm.
We will inform you of any changes to the dates or times via advanced warning signs on site.
How will this impact highway users?
Access for residents will be restricted during these works.
Traffic will be diverted via High Street, Jib Jack's Hill, Cotchford Hill, Chuck Hatch Road, High Road, Black Hill, Lye Green Road, Plumfeather Lane, Ladies Mile & vice versa.
If you need vehicle access, please discuss this with the team on site. Please bear in mind, there will be delays whilst the area is made safe and your vehicle is escorted by site marshalls. Access for emergency vehicles will be maintained at all times.
Information for residents and businesses
Parking: If required, we will put out ‘no parking’ signs and cones on the site to advise where parking is restricted. Please avoid parking in these locations as it will delay our works.
Weather: All of these works are subject to favourable weather conditions, for example heavy rain may affect the progress of the works.
Properties close to the carriageway may experience a temporary disturbance as this can be a noisy process and those properties may experience flashing lights and reversing sirens.
