Pestles Hall Bridge, Crown Lane, Weeley - temporary road closure

Bridge strengthening works are planned to take place on Pestles Hall Bridge on Crow Lane in Weeley from Monday 23 September 2024. These works are expected to take approximately two weeks to complete.

To ensure the safety of both workers and the public, a full time road closure will be in place up to 100 metres on either side of Pestles Hall Bridge, where Crow Lane crosses the watercourse connected to Homestead Lake.

Access to properties and entrances will be accessible from either side of the bridge via the diversion route, supported by site staff during working hours (between 8am and 5pm). We plan to reduce the length of the closure outside of these working hours.

A signed diversion route will be in place using the following roads: B1033 (Thorpe Road), Colchester Road, B1035, B1035 (Thorpe Road) and vice versa.

Residents are being made aware of these works by letter (example attached), with details also available on One.Network.
