New hours announced for A259 cycle route work
Bob Lanzer, county council Cabinet Member for Highways and Infrastructure, said the project has made ‘steady progress’ despite being hit by ‘unexpected challenges’ but that the change would ‘help us complete the project as soon as possible’.
The announcement follows last week’s news regarding how cabling has impacted the scheme.

Bob Lanzer thanked the public for their patience during the work and said he apologises as the council realises ‘the revised working times will have an impact for people going to and from work, school and so on’.
