A602 to Stevenage

Post by Mel »

Avoid if at all possible there are 4 way traffic lights at the roundabout with the B158. We went to Stevenage this morning and came back through Hertford but that was almost as bad

Yep. Much worse. Major road works at the Westmill roundabout start Tuesday, as do roadworks at the Hertford Road roundabout in Stevenage. Expecting long delays especially once the schools go back.

I'll answer my own question then.... there are no roadworks at the moment! :D Hertford Road in Stevenage is closed but other than that nothing.

They've put five portacabins into a newly prepared works area on the verge by Hertford Road in Stevenage. The grund around the Westmill roundabout has been staked out ready for work to commence, but the previous signs saying work would start there on August 29 have been changed to say the vaguer "during September". At some point this will really start to affect people. Last week, when they were doing some work in the roadway in Stevenage, the queue of barely moving traffic stretched back well onto the Watton by-pass, and we went through Bennigton to avoid it.

Signs are up at the roundabout at the edge of Stevenage stating that Hertford Road (which joins the A602 at the roundabout) and the cycle paths that go under the subways are closed from Monday 11th. The subways have to be relocated for the new junction, so I guess they are starting with this first.

Even though the marker posts have been put in at the Tonwell roundabout, they haven't set up a site compound. Maybe crews will just drive down from Stevenage each day?
