What traffic management will be in place? While we are working, a road closure will be in place for the safety of highway users and our operatives
What is the diversion route? B1071, A1141, A134, B1115 and vice versa.
What do I need to know about the temporary road closure?
Road closures are sometimes essential for the safety of road users and our operatives. If you are based within the closure, we will maintain access where possible. However, there may be times when access is delayed or restricted. Please plan your journeys accordingly and speak to operatives on-site if you require further information.
The latest updates on our works can be found on the One.Network website.
Works were not carried out as advised. What is happening?
Sometimes we are unable to complete works as planned. This could be due to vehicles parked on the road, or because of a variety of other reasons often beyond our control.
If we need to make major changes to our works dates, we will update the information signs on site. You will also receive another letter advising of the new date in advance.
