Note from Herts Highways:
Stonecross Junction is to be widened as part of Hertfordshire Highway’s programme for maintenance of the strategic road network in Mid April this year. The works will commence on the 15th January 2010 and will last for approximately 7 Days. However, it is possible the works could be delayed if the weather is poor during this time.
The work will involve the relocation of service provider communications cable, re-aligning the road edge line and re-surfacing of the widened road, and new Signposts to be installed., repairing and replacing damaged kerbing/tactile paving, and renewing the existing road markings. To minimise inconvenience to road users and residents / businesses alike, we have planned to carry the works out between the hours of 9:30am and 4:30pm.
The works will be carried out under a road closure; the road will be closed from 9:30am until 4:30pm Monday to Friday for 5 days, and from 7:00am to 19:00 at weekends for 1 day.
All through traffic will be required to follow the signed diversion route, around the traffic island where Stonecross road meets Harpenden Road. Access for emergency vehicles will be maintained at all times.
Bus services may be affected by this road closure – details of any changes will be posted at your local bus stop. Alternatively, you can visit www.intalink.org.uk – where you can find out further details by visiting the ‘Service Disruption’ section.
Some degree of disruption and delay can be expected as a result of the works and we will make every effort to minimise these. Please allow extra time for any journeys you may make while the works are in progress. We greatly appreciate your patience and co-operation.
Hertfordshire Highways, or their contractors will not approach you offering to carry out works to your property. Any cold calling of this nature by people claiming to represent Herts Highways should be viewed with suspicion, and caution. They will not have Herts Highways authority or approval.
