FROM HS2

Road closure, Utility works / surveys
Estimated Start Date: 29/07/2024. Estimated End Date: 11/08/2024

What we are doing
From 29 July to 11 August 2024, we will be carrying out utility ground investigation works on Breakspear Road South, north and south of the Network Rail bridge.
The installation of a new drainage pipe is needed at Breakspear Road South, therefore we will be excavating a trench across the road to identify the installation site. These works will help to inform our design decisions for the new drainage pipe installation, planned for this autumn.
In order to carry out these works safely, we’ll need to close a section of the road, north and south of the Network Rail bridge, 24 hours a day for two weeks.
