Update 3 March 2017

Following Cabinet Member approval to proceed with implementation of the CW3 CPZ, street works are scheduled to commence from 20 March 2017. Work will be carried out between 8am and 4.30pm. To allow the works to be carried out as quickly as possible, temporary parking restrictions may be introduced, although parking" cones and signs will be in place to indicate the areas where parking would be prohibited. By doing so, this will keep the roads free of parked vehicles allowing a smooth transition of the works. Vehicles would be allowed back onto the road once the lining work is complete or after the working day.

  • Finborough Road, Flanders Crescent, Shrewton Road, Arnold Road, Woodley Close and Swains Road - 20 / 21 March.
  • Pitcairn Road, Fleming Mead, North Place - 22 / 23 March.
  • Crusoe Road and Friday Road - 24 March
  • Myrna Close, Alexandra Road, Taylor Road, Tudor Place, and Waldo Place - 27 / 28 March
  • Victoria Road, Kenmare Drive 29 / 30 March
  • Singleton Close 31 March
