A six week programme of work on the A1085 Corporation Road /
Locke Road / Mersey Road Junction begins on Monday 25th February.
These planned changes were highlighted as part of the Tees
Valley Bus Network improvement scheme which looks at ways of easing traffic
congestion in the area.
Works will include widening the junction to facilitate right
turn movements for vehicles travelling from Corporation Road towards both Mersey
Road and Locke Road.
The scheme also includes upgrading the existing traffic
signals which will help to reduce delays for all road users and maximise
capacity at the junction. Improved crossing facilities will be provided to
assist both pedestrians and cyclists.
To ensure the safety of the public and workforce, Locke Road
will be closed for the duration of the scheme and a diversion route will be
clearly signposted.
Lane closures at both Corporation Road and Mersey Road will
also be in operation utilising three way temporary traffic signals.
