Traffic Management Update
Main construction works for Botley Bypass started on Tuesday 6 May 2025, please see below traffic management changes;
Spring and Summer 2025: Utility and drainage works at the A334/A3051 junction, including the removal of central traffic islands. These works will occur day, with two lanes of traffic being maintained, and night, utilising two or three-way temporary traffic lights.
By Late Summer / Early Autumn 2025: The junction will be changed to a temporary mini roundabout. Traffic will be moved to the left-hand side of the A334 to allow construction on the right-hand lane next to the field. The roundabout will help traffic flow during construction prior to the new permanent roundabout being in place in 2027.
Please be advised that site presence may vary depending on the programme and third-party activities.
Please allow more time for your journeys during the delivery of this scheme.
