Patchway Town Council have received further updates from South Gloucestershire Council regarding the subway infilling works and new crossing at The Parade in Patchway.
Works are programmed to start on Tuesday 2nd January 2024. The removal of the subway and installation of the new crossing is expected to take about 16 weeks, hopefully completed by the end of April.
Coniston Road will close at the location of the subway for the duration of the works. South Gloucestershire Council is letter dropping all residents and businesses within the Coniston catchment area to explain the diversion route.
The Council is placing project and travel information in suspended bus stops and site signboards.
South Gloucestershire Council is in discussion with Bromford about works to The Parade which the Council will carry out on their behalf following the main works to the subway. This information will be shared when it is available.
