Harvil Road restrictions

Just to update you that LBH has been in dialogue with HS2/SCS today that have informed us that the Water Samples they sent off to Affinity Water last week to get the new Water Main commissioned have been returned as failed.
This means that HS2/SCS has to flush through the new Water Main again and take new samples which must then be approved by Affinity Water prior to the new Main being commissioned.
In order to achieve this LBH has allowed HS2/SCS to install 3-Way Traffic Lights on the same section of road near the Dogs Trust that they had Traffic Lights in place recently to complete the Water Main between 30/10 and 12/11.
The 3-Way Traffic Lights will now be installed tomorrow Wed 15/11 at 9.30am and will be removed by 3.30pm tomorrow afternoon. They will then be installed again Thur 16/11 between 9.30am and 3.30pm and on Fri 17/11 between 9.30am and 3.30pm.

Wed 15/11 – Install Traffic Lights at 9.30am / Remove Traffic Lights at 3.30pm
Thur 16/11 – Install Traffic Lights at 9.30am / Remove Traffic Lights at 3.30pm
Fri 17/11 – Install Traffic Lights at 9.30am / Remove Traffic Lights at 3.30pm

While this is far from ideal, it means that for the Peak morning and afternoon periods the road will be fully open to traffic while allowing HS2/SCS to carry out its essential works Off-Peak during the day.
The Traffic Management Plan below shows the location of the Traffic Lights:

On 27 November 2023, survey works will be carried out at the Network railway bridge on Breakspear Road South.
We will investigate the condition of the sewer system using a CCTV camera mounted on a small robot. To carry out these works safely, a southbound lane closure will be in place overnight from 10pm to 5am.
