Dear
A417 road closures
Highways England operates, maintains and improves England’s motorways and major A roads. I’m writing to let you know about works in your area.
What we’re doing As part of our ongoing design work for the A417 Missing Link scheme, we will shortly be carrying out some surveys to examine the construction of the existing road. The surveys will help inform our design and construction requirements for the scheme.
When will this work take place? To carry out the surveys safely we will be temporarily closing the A417 between Witcombe and the Air Balloon Roundabout on Crickley Hill for the following nights:
• Monday 15 February from 8pm to 6am • Tuesday 16 February from 8pm to 6am • Monday 22 February from 8pm to 6am • Tuesday 23 February from 8pm to 6am
There will also be some single lane closures of the dual carriageway to the south of the Cowley roundabout towards Cirencester in place on the following nights:
• Wednesday 17 February from 8pm to 6am • Thursday 18 February from 8pm to 6am • Wednesday 24 February from 8pm to 6am • Thursday 25 February from 8pm to 6am
What does this mean for you? During the closure we’ll put a diversion route in place directing traffic through Cheltenham via the A46, A40, A435 and A436. Although the A417 on Crickley Hill will
