Background
Around 40,000 vehicles a day use this route and around 26% are heavy good vehicles, making it a critical national freight route.
We're upgrading the kerbs for this roundabout to better cope with these large vehicles, and cope with heavy rainfall.
Our work will help surface water drain away more effectively and reduce the risk of flooding.
The work is being delivered in phases, and we’ll be:
- strengthening drainage kerbs
- resurfacing the road
- replacing road markings
- installing new traffic signal sensors.
