A meeting between West Berkshire Council, Homes England and the Developer is due to take place in July to finalise the funding agreements. 1. Scheme The scheme is the delivery of the Kings Road Link Road in Newbury. It is a new direct link between the Hambridge Road industrial area and the A339 to support housing delivery and significantly improve access to a key employment area. 2. Progress with the scheme With the decontamination process complete, the Developer has appointed a contractor for the main works. It is a two stage tender so the contractor will be working with the Developer through stage 2 leading to a start on site of the main works in mid-August. Network Rail has completed the work to replace the rail bridge adjacent to the redevelopment site. The new bridge was open to traffic at the end of January 2017 following the 12 month replacement programme. Initially there is a traffic light controlled single lane system operating until the redevelopment of the industrial estate is complete and the northern approach to the bridge has been widened. Then the bridge will operate with two lanes and the traffic lights will be removed. This will have a great benefit to the transport network in this area. The Council and the Developer have established a funding agreement to ensure the correct governance of the public money contributing to this scheme.
