Work on the decorative lighting on the new Meadow Lane Footbridge and some general maintenance work to the gullies, central reservation and verges on the A52 will be taking place next week.
The work will commence on Monday 18 January and will be carried out in two phases. Phase 1 is expected to last two nights, and phase 2 will take a further three nights. To allow these to happen safely, there will be overnight lane and road closures on the A52 between Raynesway and Pentagon Island while the work takes place.
These dates are subject to weather conditions and may be changed at short notice.

Roads will be re-opened as soon as work is completed.
There will also be work carried out to the embankments at both ends of the new footbridge. This will begin at the Wyvern end on Monday 18 January and continue on the Meadow Lane end later in the week.
The work here will take place on the ‘landing areas’ and from Meadow Lane itself, so a ‘give and take’ traffic control system will be in place on Meadow Lane while the work – which are expected to take up to four weeks – is completed.
These works are the final elements of the planned landscaping/public realm works and will signify the end of the A52 Wyvern improvement scheme.
