The road will be closed from Pinkers Pond to the Coverham Church junction from 8am on Thursday 14 March to 8am on Saturday 16 March to adjust the BT manhole covers, and to allow time for the mortar to set. Vehicle access to properties within the closure will be possible at all times, however depending on the location of the works area vehicles may be asked to use the diversion route via Middleham and Wensley. Access within the closure may be limited to narrow vehicles only during these times. Monday 18 to Friday 22 March – Road Closure 8am to 5pm Carriageway patching and resurfacing.

Access to Coverham Church will be possible only by the Coverham Bridge Road. A signed diversion route will be in place during road closures. Pedestrian access will be maintained at all times. Limited vehicle access may be possible during the works with the agreement of the contractor depending on the location of their machines on the road, however please note this cannot be guaranteed. The works may inevitably restrict vehicular access to properties directly affected but our contractors will try to assist you where possible during the working day. Traffic ambassadors will be located at each closure point to assist with access or advise vehicles to use the diversion route. Please be advised there will be extended periods when vehicle access will just not be possible due to the nature of the works and physical constraints of the site. The work is part of an extensive programme and as a consequence it is possible that some adjustment to the dates or the duration of the works may be necessary should unforeseen circumstances (such as significant weather events or emergencies on the highway network arise). We request your assistance in the following ways: Please contact the Customer Resolution Centre on 01609 780780 to identify any special access needs you may have during the work period; Continued… Co-operate and comply with any instructions issued by the traffic management operatives and take extra care whilst within the works area; Please move vehicles off the road before any closure times above to allow the works to be carried out as safely and quickly as possible.
