Shorts Road Railway Bridge

Jill, Alan and Hamish have received the following Road Closure Notice affecting Shorts Road at the railway bridge.

“Sutton Council hereby gives notice of an Order to facilitate works on the railway bridge in Shorts Road, which will involve the use of scaffolding. The Order will come into effect on Monday 2nd April 2012 with the works expected to take two weeks to complete. However, the Order will remain in force for 18 months to be re-introduced should further works be required.  The Order will temporarily close Shorts Road, between its junctions with Alma Road and Colston Avenue to all classes of vehicular traffic at all times.  Whilst the Order is in force, an alternative route for through vehicular traffic will be suitably signed. Vehicular and pedestrian access to premises adjacent to the prohibited length of Shorts Road will be maintained insofar as access is reasonably practicable without interference with the said works.  Pedestrian access to the footpath running between Shorts Road and West Street (public right of way No. 67) will be maintained.”
