Just to make you aware that due to an SSE issue with their Power Cables in the area an Emergency Permit has been raised today for works to rectify the fault under 3-Way Traffic Lights and a Lane Closure near the junction of Swakeleys Rd and Harvil Rd.

Temporary Traffic Lights Heads will be in the following locations (as marked in Yellow on the Map below):

•             1 Head on Harvil Rd near House Number 3

•             1 Head on Swakeleys Rd Eastbound

•             1 Head on Swakeleys Rd Westbound

LBH Highways Inspector has been at the Site to coordinate the Traffic Management and SSE have been warned to make sure that the works are expedited to keep the delays down to a minimum.

We hope these works will be completed within the next 48 hrs but the Emergency Permit is in place until 14/11 (worst case scenario).

This is likely to cause major traffic impacts along Swakeleys Rd and around the local area while these works are taking place, but LBH cannot refuse Emergency works without very good reason so they must be allowed to be completed.
