A1331 Phase 1 / Rapid Transit Scheme – weekday night closures 6th – 22nd August

Works on the Clingoe Hill section of the Colchester Rapid Transit System and Phase One of the new A1331 Link Road remain on schedule.

In order to complete essential barrier installation and surfacing works on the A133 and at the new A1331 roundabout, a series of weekday night closures will be place between the 6th and 22nd August. The two sets of works are being undertaken together to minimise future disruption:

Diversions will be in place to re-route traffic via the A120. The road will be closed from 8pm and will follow the below schedule:

• Wednesday 6th August - closed westbound only (from Wivenhoe Junction to Elmstead Market)
• Thursday 7th & Friday 8th – closed eastbound only (from Wivenhoe Junction to Elmstead Market)
• Monday 11th to Friday 15th – closed westbound only (From Greenstead Roundabout to Elmstead Market)
• Monday 18th to Friday 22nd – closed eastbound only (From Greenstead Roundabout to Elmstead Market)

Property access will be maintained at all times, and we will endeavour to limit noisier activities to between 8pm and 11pm each night. Acoustic screening will be in place around noisy activities and across property frontages during these nights to help mitigate some of the noise.

If you require access to your property during these night works, please call James Devoir, Senior Site Manager, on 07736 597000.
