It may be half-term week, but that doesn’t mean roadworks schemes are taking a break. Plymouth will see 26 new roadworks schemes starting this week in addition to already ongoing and include work on busy roads.
All this week on Albert Road, there will be three-way signals at Home Park junction, 24 hours a day (manually controlled at peak times). This is for gas connection works carried out by Wales and West Utilities.
Also this week, on Royal Parade, the bus lane closed from Courtney Street to St Andrews Cross Roundabout (bus stop access maintained), from 7pm to 6am.
And on Tuesday 29 and Wednesday 30 October, Catherine Street is closed 9am to 6pm (Tuesday) and 9am to 4pm (Wednesday). This is for Marjon graduation ceremonies.
Plymouth City Council has helpfully put out a list of roadworks that will be taking place across the city over the next week. The council is responsible for coordinating works carried out by utility companies, developers and other organisations as well as their own repair, maintenance and improvement works.
They maintain all public roads in Plymouth except the A38, which is managed by National Highways on behalf of the Department for Transport.
“We know there's no good time to close roads, especially on busy routes and we do everything we can to co-ordinate planned works and minimise their impact on our transport network,” a City Council spokesman said.
The following roadworks are taking place in Plymouth between Monday 28 October and Saturday 2 November.
