Message from National Highways:

A419-A417 Cyclic Maintenance – June 2025

Cyclic Maintenance on A419/A417

We are planning essential maintenance at A419/A417. These works will affect various sections of the A419/A417 as noted below, the remaining sections of the A419/A417 outside of the works area shall operate as usual.

What work is being carried out?

Cyclic maintenance includes a series of planned routine activities required to be undertaken on the network to maintain the safety, functionality and appearance of the A419/A417 network. These works typically include grass cutting, gully cleaning and vegetation management.

What are the benefits to road users?

Our work reduces interventions, so the road remains open thus reducing delays and improving journey time reliability. Also, it will provide a safer and smoother journey for road users.

When and where will the work be carried out? (Traffic restrictions – check before you travel)

There will be night closures from 20:00 hours until 06:00 hours the following morning on the following dates:

Property access

Should access to your property be required, traffic management personnel will make every effort to facilitate this. However, some delay may occur while safety measures are implemented to allow safe passage through the work site. A contact number will be provided at the closure entrance for assistance.

Noise disruption

Due to the nature of the work we are carrying out there will be times when the work will cause some noise disruption. Every effort will be made to keep the noise to a minimum and we will plan the work to take place at times which will cause least disruption, but please note that this
will not always be possible.

Diversion routes

The proposed diversion routes for the closure are outlined below. Please refrain from following satellite navigation systems and instead adhere to the signed diversion routes, which correspond to the diversion maps enclosed with this letter and are clearly marked with diversion symbols at the start of the diversion route (e.g. for Diversion Route 1 Northbound, follow).
