About the works

We will be carrying out highway improvements on Bakers Lane / Cottis Lane. Works will involve reconstructing the carriageway and realigning the footways.

How it will affect you

Works are planned to commence on Monday 8 September 2025 and are anticipated to take approximately 16 weeks. To complete. In order to carry out activities in a safe manner, the work will be carried out in phases on Bakers Lane. The works are currently planned to be completed under two main phases with associated road closures.

	Location	Works and proposed traffic restrictions
Phase One	From the junction with St John’s Road, to the Bakers Lane roundabout junction with Cottis Lane	Road closure
Phase Two	from the roundabout with Cottis Lane, to (and including) the junction with Albany Court	Road closure
Phase Three	Albany Court	Overnight road closure for resurfacing with no vehicle access

During the closures, a signed diversion route will be in place using the following roads: St John’s Road, Coronation Hill and Lincolns Field.

We would like to thank you in advance for your patience and co-operation while we carry out these improvements.
