Whilst there is an allowance within the time periods shown above for delays, there may be times when we have to postpone works at very short notice; based on the latest weather forecasts, this can occur just prior to works commencing.
We will always look to provide up to date information wherever we can, but sometimes these last minute decisions can be difficult to relay to the travelling public in a timely manner.
When we can, any significant changes to the scheduled dates will be made clear on the yellow sign boards located at the works limits.
For your safety and that of our workforce, we are unable to guarantee vehicular access to and from your property during the road closure. Should you need to make an essential journey, please contact a member of the workforce on-site in advance, and they will be able to advise if they can accommodate your request.
Pedestrian access will be available at all times. For further details of how the road closure may affect your access please visit our website – www.hants.gov.uk/roadworks
