A road near a large supermarket in Watford is one of the roads set to be temporarily shut to allow roadworks to take place.
Herts County Council has published its intention to prevent vehicles from using the northern arm of Ascot Road near Morrisons supermarket in the Public Notice Portal to allow water connections works to be carried out.
The portal is used to access all of the upcoming and recent information about various restrictions and notices.
Here are four notices we’ve rounded up which could affect residents in Watford, Rickmansworth and Croxley Green.
Various Watford roads – temporary closure and turning manoeuvres
Herts County Council is intending to make an order to prohibit vehicles from using the following length of road to allow water connection works to take place:
- Ascot Road (northern arm), Watford from its junction with the access road leading to 'Premier Inn' south eastwards to its junction with the access road leading to 'Morrisons Car Park', a distance of approximately 293m, except for access.
- To prohibit vehicles from making a left turn manoeuvre from the access road leading to 'Premier Inn' into Ascot Road (northern arm), Watford, whilst works are in progress.
- To prohibit vehicles from making a left turn manoeuvre from the Ascot Road/Raven Close roundabout into Ascot Road (northern arm), Watford, whilst works are in progress.
- To prohibit vehicles from making a right turn manoeuvre from Ascot Road (northern arm) into the westbound carriageway of Ascot Road, Watford, whilst works are in progress.
- The existing one-way traffic system on that length of Ascot Road, Watford from its junction with the Raven Close roundabout south eastwards to its junction with the access road leading to 'Morrisons Supermarket', will be temporarily suspended to enable all traffic to travel in both directions within this length of road, whilst works are in progress.
