Where will the works take place?
The works are due to take place on the A258 Dover Road, Walmer from its junction with Station Road to its junction with Ringwould Road.
What are we planning to do?
We will be carrying out planing and resurfacing of the carriageway followed by the replacement of all road markings.
Why do we want to do this work?
This section of carriageway has been identified as falling below an acceptable condition. As such, funding has been made available to carry out this essential resurfacing of the carriageway, which will improve the running surface.
How will we carry out the work and how will it affect you?
Due to the nature of this work it will be necessary to arrange a temporary road closure whilst works are undertaken. Work will be carried out between the hours of 20:00 and midnight and a signed diversion route will be in operation.
Disruption will be kept to a minimum but vehicle access will be restricted whilst the works are being undertaken. It is absolutely imperative and your full cooperation is required to keep the area free of all parked cars. Please make arrangements for
your vehicle to be parked at an alternative convenient location whilst the works are taking place.
Failure to do so could result in the resurfacing being cancelled.
"Please respect our workers space and safety by driving carefully and slowly through the
roadworks. Feedback from our workers shows that too many drivers go too fast through
roadworks. Everyone is entitled to a safe workplace. Our men and women work next to moving
traffic and risk injury every day".
When will the work start and how long will it take?
Works are due to commence on Monday 19 January 2009 and be completed by Tuesday 27
January 2009. Advance warning boards will be put out on site with a start date before any works begin.
Please be aware that this work can be affected by excessive weather conditions and as
such, delays could be experienced. Please note: In addition further works will be carried out
by our Alliance Partner, Jacobs, between Ringwould Road and Pond Lane as a continuation
from Wednesday 28 January 2009 to 10 February 2009.
