Advance warning signs will be in place and emergency vehicle access to properties will be maintained at all times. Pedestrian access will remain available throughout the works. Please note that all works are weather-dependent and may be subject to change at short notice. 

Approval to progress with implementation of the scheme was given by the Director of Universal Services at Decision Day on 27 February 2025, please read the Decision Details.

Scheme benefits

The improvements would make walking and cycling safer and could encourage more active lifestyles for residents, including more vulnerable road users. In particular, the scheme at the junction of Bramley Lane and Sherfield Road would ensure that cars are restricted to the road, building the confidence of those walking locally that they will not encounter a vehicle on the footway. Likewise, the Minchens Lane scheme may encourage people to cycle and make use of the NCN 23, as there will be less conflict with other road users.

Investigation works took place on Thursday 13 February for two days. The planned investigation works included; trial holes; workers will drill small holes in the road to take out samples. These samples help them understand the road’s condition, ground penetrating radar survey to identify underground utilities and vegetation clearance.

Funding Arrangements

Funding for the transport capital delivery schemes is separate from the County Council’s revenue budget and savings proposals.  In the majority of cases funding comes from external grants and / or Section 106 contribution from developers.  This funding usually has conditions that strictly control on how, where and when it can be spent.
