National Highways’ contractor, Keir, has provided an update on the A417 Missing Link works:
Additional Works on the A417 Missing Link
From 6 November through to the 9 November between 21:00 – 04:00, we will have traffic lights in operation during our overnight closures. They will be positioned in three locations, A436 Leckhampton Road towards the Air Balloon roundabout, Leckhampton junction by Crickley Hill Country Park and A417 adjacent to the Air Balloon roundabout.
This will allow surveys to take place to enable works in the future regarding the high voltage ducting across the carriageway. Traffic will be stopped at the lights and follow the route around the roundabout which will be clearly signed. There will be one way traffic at any time.
Full Weekend closure
The A417 operations team have taken the decision to postpone the full weekend closure due to unforeseen circumstances and the necessity to acquire further surveys on this part of the network.
We will commence works in the New Year.
