Phases of work
The work is scheduled from Monday 23 November for one week including the weekend (weather permitting) and will require an overnight closure of Millbrook Road West westbound from Millbrook Roundabout to Millbrook Point Road (see map below). Working hours will be between 8pm and 6am. These closures will not be in place during the day.
The works are weather dependant and so the dates above are subject to change, however, we will endeavour to meet the proposed schedule. Advanced warning signs erected on site will advise of any changes to dates closer to the time.
