Construction update September 2024

Works currently underway

We are laying the final gravel surface layer on multiple sections of the path between Carterhatch Lane and Goat Lane. We have begun the excavation between Turkey Street and Bullsmoor Lane. Works have also begun on the parallel crossing on Carterhatch Lane which will enable people walking and cycling to safely cross the road and continue their journey along the New River path.

Upcoming works

We will be completing the path between Goat Lane and Turkey Brook. We will also begin to construct a new central island on Carterhatch Lane. During these works we will have temporary traffic signals on the bridge to allow construction to take place safely. This phase is programmed to start mid-late October and last for approximately 3 weeks. Once the island has been constructed, we will resurface Carterhatch Lane from Sinclare Close up to Ladysmith Road. These works will be carried out at night between the hours of 20:00 and 05:00 also under temporary traffic signals. The resurfacing is programmed to start in mid-November for 1 week.
