Noise and weekend working

To complete this work as quickly and efficiently as possible we will be working in sections and at weekends. 

This resurfacing will require noisy work to break up the old road surface and involve large machinery moving around the area to lay the new surface.

Working hours will be:

• 8am - 6pm Mondays to Fridays
• 8am -1pm on Saturdays
• Please note not all weekends will include work.

Towards the end of the programme, later working hours on Saturdays as well as Sunday working may also be included. We will update the hours of work and any changes to dates on our website.

We apologise in advance for any inconvenience this will cause.
