A43 Closure Update - July 26

Posted 3 hours ago in Roads & Transport

Works are taking place on the A43 north of Brackley as part of the final phase of the road realignment project, connecting the new section of the A43 with the existing carriageway. Activities will include the installation of new signage, road resurfacing, and the application of new white lining.

To carry out these works safely, weekend carriageway closures will be required in one direction at a time, with lane closures also necessary during the programme of works.

Road Closures:

• Weekend closures

Dates:

• Friday 10 July, 20:00 - Sunday 12 July, 23:59 (Southbound)
• Friday 17 July, 20:00 - Sunday 19 July, 23:59 (Northbound)

Contingency Dates (if required):

• Friday 24 July, 20:00 - Sunday 26 July, 07:00 (Southbound)
• Friday 31 July, 20:00 - Sunday 2 August, 07:00 (Northbound)

Traffic Management:

Lane closures will be in place as required to allow the A43 realignment works to be carried out safely. Due to extreme heat, the main weekend closures have been extended to allow additional time for the asphalt to set. Delays and diversions should be expected while works are in progress. All activities remain subject to the necessary consents and may be subject to change.
