Phase 4 works 116 to 180 High Street.
Completed works
- The granite parking bays up to WH Smiths have been completed. Some have already been made available for parking whilst the remainder will be reopened as soon as feasible. Paving has now been completed to Café Nero.
- The Post Office has agreed a slight relocation of the existing nearby letter box.
Next week’s works.
- The paving adjacent to the shops will continue to WH Smith. Kerbing will continue towards Leather Alley.
- In order to maintain access to all shop entrances pavement laying will have to be conducted out of normal hours between 18pm and 20pm on some days. We do understand that this can be a nuisance and FM Conway will endeavour to keep noise disturbance to a minimum during these times.
The entrance cross over to the alley between Miso and The Card Factory will be repaved on Thursday and Friday 22nd & 23rd March. All residents and businesses using this area to park will be contacted and together with the assistance of the local parking authority relocated parking will be arranged.
Bus Stop J a temporary stop opposite the junction of Fairfield Road and the High Street will be reinstated.
In the next few weeks Thames Water will be making a new water connection to the flats above The Card Factory. Unfortunately some new paving will have to be lifted.
Traffic Management
Two directional traffic from the junction of Bromley Road / Church Avenue / High Street south to Thornton’s Corner cannot resume because of safety concerns. If it were to be reintroduced some vehicles would be forced on to Burnhill Road and Kelsey Square. This would potentially include HGVs which would be particularly unsatisfactory.
