Lower Bristol Road - National Grid works - UPDATE

THESE WORKS HAVE BEEN CANCELLED AND WILL BE RESCHEDULED.

We have been notified of upcoming utility works that are likely to cause congestion in Bath from Saturday 11th to Friday 17th February (school half term), that we want to make you aware of.

National Grid need to provide a new high voltage cable for the new development on the former Dick Lovett car showroom site on Lower Bristol Road.

The works involve an excavation across Lower Bristol Road, and requires the permanent signals at the junction with Windsor Bridge Road to be turned off and replaced with temporary 4 way signals. This is what we expect will cause delays, and due to the temporary pedestrian crossings require an all-red stage in the temporary signals.

Advanced warning signs will be in place before the works commence, and variable messaging signs will inform motorists of any delays. Emergency services and bus operators will also be informed.
