  • Thank you for taking the time to report this to us. It is much appreciated. These works only have lane restrictions on A316 and there are no temporary signals involved on this carriageway. The only temporary signals are on Bear Road to allow a safe place to cross for pedestrians (these are push to cross) so wouldn’t be causing this amount of congestion.

    There are elements of the works which look as though they have no activity taking place, however overnight, curing is taking place as these are bridge refurbishment works. We have checked CCTV and we have no reports of lengthy delays here.
