Swindon Borough Council has taken a significant step towards improving the condition of the town’s deteriorating roads by appointing a contractor for a comprehensive resurfacing scheme.
This initiative aims to enhance the quality of major and minor roads across the Borough, benefitting residents and motorists alike.
VolkerHighways Ltd is set to start the resurfacing and improvement works on Tuesday, July 4th, 2023.
This program will encompass sections of roads in 15 different locations throughout Swindon.
The first set of works begin on July 4th, 2023, at the following locations:
- Broome Manor Lane,
- Knollys Close,
- Weedon Road,
- Amberley Close.
These initial works are estimated to be completed within a single day, and road closures will be implemented to facilitate the process.
Subsequent works at four additional locations are set to commence on Monday, July 10th, 2023. These sites include:
- Penhill Drive,
- County Road,
- Edison Road,
- High Street in Blunsdon.
The Council anticipates that these works will be finalised by Wednesday, July 19th, 2023, and road closures will be in effect to ensure the safety of the workers and road users during the resurfacing process.
In addition to the initial 11 locations, the Council plans to address seven more sites, yet to be identified, as part of the resurfacing maintenance scheme.
