Breakspear Road South lane closure Jan 7-16

HS2 in Hillingdon reports:

Work is required to complete the diversion of an Affinity water main. The nature of the work means that it can only be carried out under a northbound lane closure of Breakspear Road South.

The work will start on Monday 7 January and will last until Wednesday 16 January and will be working 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Traffic management with temporary traffic lights will be put into place to allow traffic to continue to use the road during this time. Further information can be found here.

More Breakspear Road South closures

Following recent meetings with HS2, we have been advised that HS2 contractors will need to close the northbound lane in Breakspear Road South for a 30-metre stretch north of the Chiltern line bridge. This is planned to last nine days – Jan 7 to 16th. This will be followed by an eight-week complete closure commencing last week of February. These dates are to be confirmed.
