The following letter was received from Wiltshire Council regarding resurfacing works on Russell Mill Lane:

As consultant representative for Wiltshire Council, I write to inform you of resurfacing works programmed along Russell Mill Lane, Littleton Panell, between the junction with the A360 and the end of Russell Mill Lane. The site extents can be viewed on the attached drawing.

 

These works involve repairs to the existing carriageway and the adjustment of surface ironwork.

 

The works will commence on Monday 23^rd May 2022 and will be completed on Thursday 26^th May 2022 between the hours of 07:00 and 18:00, however, on occasions they may over run due to uncontrollable circumstances such as plant breakdowns, if weather conditions are unfavourable, or occasionally we discover the need for additional repairs once the work has started. The road will be open as normal outside of these hours.  You can view this via one.network by entering the following address into an internet browser: https://one.network/?tmi=GB22094524.

 

Due to the nature of the works and the local environment, the works will be carried out within a temporary road closure, to ensure that adequate health & safety is maintained for the contractor & local residents.

 

Ironwork adjustments may need to be completed at a later date.

 

There will be points throughout the works period where vehicular access will not be possible as plant may be obstructing the road or material may be newly laid which residents will not be able to drive over, as early trafficking could lead to premature failure. I have suggested to residents that if works are being undertaken in the vicinity of their property; speak to the workforce in advance to ask if there will be any restrictions with regards to access.

 

The Contractor will maintain pedestrian access for residents for the duration of the works; I have recommended to residents that when leaving their property in their vehicle, to allow extra time for any possible delays and when returning to their property, there will be traffic management operatives located at the extents of the works, to speak to them, explain where they live, and they will be able to assist.

 

Advanced signing will be erected and letter drops to all residents located within the site extents will be undertaken week commencing Monday 9^th May 2022.

 

I would like to take this opportunity to apologise for any inconvenience these works will cause but trust you will appreciate the necessity for these essential works to maintain Wiltshire’s highway network.  Should you require any further information in advance of the works please do not hesitate to contact me on the details shown below. If you wish to discuss the works whilst they are in operation, please speak to a member of the workforce who will direct you to the appropriate person.
