Roadworks at Smithdown Road junction
MOTORISTS are being warned about 11 weeks of roadworks
at a major junction in Liverpool.
During the works from Saturday, 12 September 2015, until the end of November
2015, there
will be lane restrictions and temporary traffic lights at the Smithdown
Road/Ullet Road junction, with Ullet Road and Greenbank Drive closed to
vehicles at the junction with Smithdown Road, in Liverpool. Signed diversions will be in
place.
When the work is complete, it will create a much better junction with two
lanes of traffic into the City instead of 1, and improved pedestrian
facilities.
A Liverpool City Council spokesman said:- "We know that this work
will cause some short term disruption for local residents and motorists but
the end result will be a much improved junction."
The works form the 1st Phase of the Smithdown Road scheme, which will also
see the section of road between Gainsborough Road and Allerton Road
resurfaced as part of Phase 2, which will commence in the New Year.
The project is part of a wider £1.9 million scheme included in the City's
£80 million investment in highways over the next 5 years. |
