Eastbury Road from Deacons Hill to Bushey Arches will be closed for two weeks, 2 - 15 April, over the Easter Holidays when traffic is lighter. The old metal gas main and services will be replaced with new plastic polyethylene pipe (with a design life in excess of 60 years).
In autumn, more gas main repairs are planned for Oaklands Avenue, St Francis Close, Hillcroft Crescent, Raglan Gardens, crossing Brookdene Ave at “Five Ways Corner”, part of Green Lane, Anthony Close and Nancy Downs. Vivian Gardens is still being reviewed. Wherever possible, the new pipes will be inserted within the existing mains, which are mostly under our pavements and grass verges. People’s gas meters will generally stay where they are. We will keep you informed.
