Section of Cycleway 9 To Close For Up To Four Months |
|
Works taking place on cycle lane between Chiswick Lane and British Grove Hounslow Highways has issued a warning that the eastern section of Cycleway 9 is to be closed from next Monday morning (29 November) through to the spring. The segregated cycle lane will be shut between Chiswick Lane to British Grove to allow work to take place on the amendments to the scheme in the revised design by Hounslow Council. These changes aim to reduce the impact on the travel time of buses along Chiswick High Road particularly by reintroducing a left turn lane for westbound traffic turning into Chiswick Lane. The changes also are aimed at reducing the impact that the cycleway has on elderly and disabled users. The scheduled completion date for the work is 15 April but this is subject to change depending on factors such as the weather and availability of materials and labour. Hammersmith & Fulham Council is also carrying out work to create a bi-directional cycleway that will be the continuation of Cycleway 9 towards Hammersmith Broadway. The work on this project is also currently scheduled to finish around the same time.
