Information for residents
Access to properties for vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists will be maintained around the worksite where possible.
We’ll help people get around the site. Please advise our team if you have specific requirements e.g. medical visits, large deliveries, home help or any planned works.
There will be increased construction noise and vibration at times, and we’ll do our best to keep this to a minimum.
The work will have no impact on any services such as water, electricity, telecommunications, and gas.
The timing of the work and certain activities will depend on the weather and the roads. We'll provide updates if there are changes to the planned works.
Noise
