For your awareness, we are planning to carry out carriageway resurfacing along East Street, Trinity Street, Pinkney’s Lane and Market Place, Southwold.
The works are programmed to take place between 8am and 6pm on Wednesday 2 October, Thursday 3 October and Friday 4 October. During this time, the road will be closed to ensure the safety of highway users and our operatives.
For the duration of the closure, traffic will be diverted via High Street, Victoria Street and vice versa.
To enable us to carry works out as planned, we ask that local road users please move their vehicles from the area highlighted by ‘no parking’ cones.
As we plan roadworks in advance, we schedule extra days to allow for bad weather or other delays beyond our control. If we need to make major changes to our work dates, we will update the information signs on site and our social media channels accordingly.
A plan showing the diversion route for these works is attached to this email. When we close the road and put a diversion in place, the route needs to be accessible to vehicles of all shapes and sizes. We make our diversions as clear as possible by placing appropriate signing along the route. The latest updates on our works can be found on the One.Network website.
There may be times that essential emergency works are required to take place on the highway network without advanced notice – you can follow Suffolk Highways on Facebook for the latest emergency roadwork updates.
Please use any contacts within your division or parish to circulate this notification.
