Notification of extension of Grove Road, Friston, closure
We recently notified you that Grove Road would be closed approximately 250 metres North of the Church Road junction to undertake essential construction works.
We would like to inform you that this road closure will be extended until 8th October. This extended closure is necessary to protect a nesting bird. Work will resume once the chicks have fledged
Access 9/10 duct bank work
We would also like to inform you that SPR will be undertaking essential construction works on Snape Road. These works form part of the East Anglia TWO offshore wind farm project and will involve the installation of ducts at accesses 9 and 10. This work will take place over three consecutive weekends and will involve traffic management.
The schedule of work is as follows:
- Friday 19th September 2200 – Monday 22nd September 0600
- Friday 26th September 2200 – Monday 29th September 0600
- Friday 3rd October 2200 – Monday 6th October 0600
Scope of works:
- Excavation of the road to install ducts for substation cables.
- Reinstatement of the road including new surfacing.
The works are being undertaken overnight at the weekend to minimise disruption as far as possible. Access will be maintained at all times for cyclists, pedestrians (including pedestrians with buggies/prams) and wheelchair users and our teams are committed to conducting these works in a safe and efficient manner.
Please note: we are aware that our diversion route for our access works uses Grove Road, therefore we will be removing the Grove Road closure on the above weekends to ensure traffic can be diverted accordingly. All open excavations will be covered and suitably fenced to ensure the safety of the public.
