Two Tunnels Project Starts on Monday

Works to deliver the Two Tunnels Greenway are due to commence on 10th January. The work is being undertaken in 5 sections to minimise disruption and to allow local residents to use as much of the path as possible during the works.

The sections are as follows:

Section 1 (Pink) – 10-23rd January – Devonshire Tunnel portal to Hiscocks Drive bridge (access via Bloomfield Road open space);
Section 2 (Blue) – 24th Jan – 6th Feb – Hiscocks Drive bridge to Monksdale Road (access from Monksdale Road);
Section 3 (Green) – 7-20th Feb – Monksdale Road to St Kildas Road (access from Monksdale Road – NO access from St Kildas Road);
Section 4 (Orange) – 21st Feb – 6th March – St Kildas Road to Millmead Road (access from Millmead Road – NO access from St Kildas Road);
Section 5 (Red) – 7-20th March – Millmead Road to Bellots Road bridge (access from Millmead Road – NO access from Bellots Road).

The sections will be constructed in this order and works shall take place to one section only at a time. The rest of the route shall be left open for public use and constructed sections shall be opened prior to the next section being occupied. It is expected that work on each section shall take approximately two weeks. Notices will be placed along the Linear Park route as work progresses.
