Footpath Closure for maintenance
Droxford Village Community
W1139 – A32 High Street, Droxford - Footway Resurfacing Works
As part of Hampshire Highways' annual planned maintenance programme, footway resurfacing works in High Street, Droxford from Mill Lane to Park Lane are to be carried out.
The works are programmed to start on 17th February 2025 and are expected to take up to 5 days to complete. Due to the nature of the work and for safety reasons, it is necessary to have a footway closure on High Street and Park Lane will be closed to through traffic between the hours of 09:30 – 16:00. The road will be open outside of these hours.
Whilst there is an allowance within the time periods shown above for delays, there may be times when we have to postpone works at very short notice; based on the latest weather forecasts, this can occur just prior to works commencing. We will always look to provide up to date information wherever we can, but sometimes these last-minute decisions can be difficult to relay to the travelling public in a timely manner. When we can, any significant changes to the scheduled dates will be made clear on the yellow sign boards located at the works limits.
In order to help us to complete the work as quickly as possible, please ensure that no vehicles are parked near the area of works during working hours.
Please be aware any vehicles left parked on the road that prevent the works taking place, face the risk of being removed.
The surfacing operation uses a separate bitumen layer in addition to the new asphalt footway surface. In order to avoid potential injury or damage, please do not walk across the footway during the works unless directed by a member of the workforce.
For your safety and that of our workforce, we are unable to guarantee vehicular access to and from your property during the closure. Should you need to make an essential journey, please contact a member of the workforce in advance and they will be able to advise if they can accommodate your request. Pedestrian access will be available at all times. For further details of how these works may affect your access please visit our website – www.hants.gov.uk/roadworks.
