Nottingham City Council’s Highways Maintenance Team is undertaking works on the Nottingham Ring Road as part of an overall £810,000 investment.

The work will take place at the Roundabout where Aspley Lane crosses the Ring Road.

Work carried out will consist of resurfacing the carriageway around the junction, removing the old worn surface, replacing any damaged ironwork including manholes and gullies and laying a new tarmac surface.

Work starts on Monday February 11 and will take one week. The work will be carried out during off peak evening hours only, between 18.30 and 23.00pm to reduce impact on the traffic using the affected routes.

Geoff Kidd, Highways Maintenance, Nottingham City Council, said: “To do this work in the shortest possible time we will close the Aspley Lane entrances onto the island, which will enable us to keep two-way traffic flow on the Ring Road itself. Traffic on the Ring Road will be reduced to one lane in either direction using a contra-flow system to close one half of the island at any time. Motorists are advised to avoid the area if possible, but alternative diversion routes will be signposted during the working hours. Access to properties will be maintained at all times and we apologise for any inconvenience and would reassure motorists that we will do all we can to keep disruption to a minimum.”
