From Monday 9 February, temporary traffic management will be in place at the Library Road entrance for approximately 2 weeks. This will include a single-lane closure and temporary traffic lights.

Access for all vehicles will be maintained throughout the works, however large articulated lorries may experience difficulty exiting. To manage this safely, the contractor will coordinate their exit via the bollards adjacent to the Humanities building.

Cromwell Lane in Burton Green will be closed from 8am on Tuesday 7 April to 6pm on Sunday 30 August 2026 to enable utility connection works, road surfacing and reinstatement. Access for pedestrians and cyclists will be maintained throughout the work with a fully signed diversion route.
