Traffic management to the dual carriageway which involved lane closures and pedestrian temporary walkways.
Road crossings for ductwork.
Sandstone and Granite paving laid on a high strength proprietary mortar with high strength free flow grout.
Road closures were required for the speed table installation. Extensive stakeholder engagement was required for this work as there was no alternative diversion routes.
Installation of traffic signals.
Street lighting.

New service installation cannot always be installed in the desired position due to other apparatus in the footway.
Early stakeholder engagement allowed the necessary traffic management road closures to be planned ahead.
