SGN works update – 05/08/25

Following the weekly meeting with SGN this morning chaired by County Councillor – Yvonne Gravely, we are pleased to share that the engineering works will be completed by Friday 8th August. Road reinstatement will begin the same evening from 7pm to 12am.

To minimise disruption, the traffic management system will be removed over the weekend (Saturday 9th and Sunday 10th August) and will be temporarily reinstalled on Monday 11th August to allow repairs to the hoardings around the Angel Hotel and to install the artwork. All traffic management will be fully removed by Wednesday 13th August.

This is a great result, as the works were originally expected to take six weeks, but thanks to SGN’s hard work, they are finishing two weeks early. SGN are also working closely with SDNPA to ensure the traffic management system can remain in place, the hoardings and artwork is safely installed without causing disruption and being a later closure with more traffic lights.

The aim is to carry out the final stages with minimal disruption to residents and traffic.
