Northamptonshire Highways set to commence resurfacing works in Silverstone
Northamptonshire Highways will commence resurfacing works on Brackley Road and Towcester Road on Monday (June 21).
The resurfacing aims to improve the structural stability of the roads, increase skid resistance and overall improve safety for road users.
Portfolio holder for climate, transport, highways, and waste services on West Northamptonshire Council Cllr Phil Larratt, said: “Our priority is to keep the highway network open and safe. However, we sometimes need to close roads to carry out highway repairs to improve road journeys and enhance local communities.
“We really appreciate residents’ cooperation to move any vehicles parked along the route of our operations. This will allow the team to complete the works safely and efficiently, whilst ensuring we keep on programme. I would like to thank you for your understanding, patience, and co-operation.”
Works include resetting of ironworks where required and installation of road markings and high friction surfacing. The gullies will also be cleaned and vegetation clearance will be carried out on Brackley Road.
West Northamptonshire Council advises road users to check the on-site signs for the latest information because weather can affect the programme and dates may change.
Access will not be permitted during working hours but road users can speak with any of the onsite team if assistance is required. The only exception to this is emergency vehicles, which will be given access.
