Hull City Council is preparing to begin an essential carriageway maintenance scheme on Bude Road next week.
The scheme will improve the existing carriageway on Bude Road between Kingscott Close and Cookbury Close.
The intention of the scheme is to reconstruct and resurface the failed area of the carriageway, to ensure the highway provides a safe and even surface for traffic with adequate grip and skid resistance.
The work will start on Monday 4 November and is planned to take up to one week to complete – weather permitting.
To maintain safety, these works will be conducted under a road closure with a full diversion route in place via Bodmin Road.
The pedestrian footways will not be affected by this closure. Access for residents and emergency service vehicles will be maintained at all times and bin collections are scheduled to continue as normal.
Further, scheduled bus services on this section of Bude Road will be temporarily suspended during this road closure. Notices will be placed at the affected bus stops with more details about the services affected.
Councillor Mark Ieronimo, portfolio holder for transportation, roads, and highways at Hull City Council, said: “This section of the carriageway is in poor condition, so I am happy to hear that the reconstruction and resurfacing work will be carried out imminently.
“Not only does this work help us futureproof our road network, but it also helps keep the road safe for all users.
“We understand that roadworks can be inconvenient, and we thank residents and motorists for their patience and understanding whilst we carry out these works.”
The scheme will be carried out by Wright Civil Engineering Limited on behalf of the council.
