Estates: Latest news

The Tocil bridgeLink opens in a new window will be closed on Wednesday 12th November to allow for the completion of essential works. The closure is necessary to carry out final maintenance and ensure the bridge remains safe and accessible for all users.

Access will be restricted throughout the day and pedestrians and cyclists are advised to use alternative routes. The bridge is expected to reopen once the works are complete.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused.

From Monday 10 November to Friday 14 November 2025, part of the Kirby Corner car park will be closed to allow ground surveys to take place. Alternative parking will remain available in the rest of the car park.

Site preparation works are currently underway along the A46 to remove redundant materials and create new access points. These early activities will help ensure that, once all necessary approvals are in place, main construction works can resume in the new year at the intended pace for the remainder of the project.

To enable these preparatory works, overnight lane closures will take place on the A46 mainline during the weekend of 8th & 9th November 2025. These closures are required to install traffic management measures and set up a future diversion route. Traffic will continue to be maintained on the remaining open lanes.

• Southbound Closure: Saturday 8 November 2025 from 20:00 to 06:00
• Northbound Closure: Sunday 9 November 2025 from 20:00 to 06:00

Please plan ahead and allow extra time for your journeys during these periods.
