**A3057 resurfacing - more detail**
I've recieved more detail today about the resurfacing of the A3057 between Greatbridge and Kings Somborne.
Hampshire County Council will be undertaking carriageway resurfacing and repairs at various locations along the A3057, between Greatbridge House, near Romsey, to Cox Drove Hill in King’s Somborne.
The works have been programmed as follows:
• _Preparatory Works – start Monday 13th June 2022 and will last for up to 4 weeks – works will be undertaken using Temporary Traffic Lights from 09:30 to 16:00hrs during the day (to 15:00hrs when working in King’s Somborne) and 20:00 to 06:00hrs during the night – Mon to Fri
• _Carriageway Resurfacing & Repairs – starting Monday 11th July 2022 and will last for up to 7 weeks – works will be undertaken using Road Closures from 20:00 to 06:00hrs each night – Mon to Fri.
In order to undertake the works safely it will be necessary to close the road in phases.
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.
Residents in close proximity to the works will receive a letter to inform them they may experience some noise disturbance overnight. We are aware of the issues created by night working and will endeavour to keep noise levels reduced whenever possible.
In order to help us to complete the work as quickly as possible, please ensure that no vehicles are parked on the road in the vicinity of the works.
For residents located within the traffic management for the road closure or traffic lights set-up, vehicular access to and from their property cannot be guaranteed during working hours. Do contact a member of the workforce on site in advance and should you need to have access to or from your property and they will be able to advise if they can accommodate your request. Pedestrian access will be available at all times.
The surfacing operation uses a separate bitumen layer in addition to the new asphalt carriageway surface. In order to avoid potential injury or damage, please do not walk across the carriageway during the works unless directed by a member of the workforce.
Thank you for your co-operation and if you need more information regarding these works, you can using any of the options below.
