Works at A24 London Rd – Langley Ave to Trafalgar Ave

Road works information from TfL

London Highways Alliance Contract (LoHAC) workers, on behalf of Transport for London (TfL), are planning to carry out footway improvements on the A24 London Road from Langley Avenue to Trafalgar Avenue.

Why are we doing this work?

This work is part of the Road Modernisation Plan, the biggest investment for a generation consisting of hundreds of projects to transform junctions, bridges, tunnels and pedestrian areas. Working with London’s boroughs it will make our roads safer and more reliable.

Where and when will the work take place?

Works are planned to start on Monday 4 January 2016 and will last until April 2016, depending on weather conditions. Working hours will be between 08:00 and 20:00.

Night works are planned to start on Monday 22 February 2016 and will last until Friday 4 March 2016, depending on weather conditions. Working hours will be between 21:00 to 05:00.

What we would like you to know

During these works, footway closures will be in place during the day and temporary traffic lights will be in place at night.

We will make every effort to ensure that noisy operations are completed before midnight although vehicle reversing warning beepers will be in use to protect workers and the public. Access for emergency services will be maintained at all times during the works.

Keeping London moving

We have worked closely with LoHAC and the London Borough of Sutton, to reduce the impact of these works on road users, local residents and businesses as far as possible.
I hope you will appreciate that a certain level of disruption is inevitable, and I apologise in advance for any inconvenience that may be caused as a result of these essential works.

Should you require further information or an update during the delivery of these works, please contact our Customer Services team on 0343 222 1234 or via the web at tfl.gov.uk/contact.

Businesses complain of ‘worst ever’ traffic in Worcester Park

Traffic has hit “total gridlock” in Worcester Park after roadworks appeared to repair a manhole cover.

Businesses have said it is a “diabolical” situation, and one man said it is the worst he has ever seen it.
