Outside of these hours, the road will be open as usual.

While the coring works are in progress, the access for residents and local businesses will be maintained whenever it is safe to do so.

Pedestrian access to properties in the area will not be affected by the construction, and emergency vehicles will always have access to the road.

Information signs will be erected at key points before the start of the coring works to inform road users about the impending road closure.
