Road works start on Slough Art at the Centre
Slough Borough Council will be carrying out road works to Slough High Street from this week, for the Art at the Centre street enhancement scheme.
These works will be carried out by Enterprise PLC working in partnership with Slough Borough Council, and will commence on 12th November 2007 working from Windsor Road towards Church Street.
The Slough construction work will be done in small areas allowing vehicles and pedestrians to continue with some disruption to their normal daily activities.
However, due to health and safety requirements, there will be times when access to the High Street from Windsor Road will be closed to vehicles, in order to complete road surfacing.
This will include the suspension of the disabled parking, bus stop, taxi and loading bays. Alternative disabled parking is available in Buckingham Gardens and Herschel Street multi storey car parks.
When construction work is required across any access driveway or shop entrance, the contractor will inform the occupier before any work commences and agree a convenient time to do this work.
Roger Kirkham, Art at the Slough Centre project manager, said: “While every effort will be made to keep disruption to a minimum, we appeal to all pedestrians and road users to exercise caution until all the work has been completed. “
Cllr Dexter Smith, commissioner for Slough planning and transport, said: “We do apologise for any inconvenience caused while these works are carried out, however, it is necessary for us to achieve our fantastic state-of-the-art High Street, that everyone can be proud of.”
If residents or businesses require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact Kevin Lee on 07775 934 861 or the project manager, Roger Kirkham on 01753 875840.
