Road and lane closures etc Chalkhill Road, Bridge Road, Barn Hill in Wembley Park January-February for new water main installation

Information from Brent Council

Affinity Water have to install a new water main along Chalkhill Road and Bridge Road, Wembley, to increase water supply in the area. Unfortunately, to safely undertake these works road closures, lane closures and banned left turn will be required.

 

  • 2nd January – 23rd February – Chalkhill Road will be closed to through traffic at the junction of Bridge Road, access for residents and businesses will be maintained with local agreement for the duration of the works. 

 

  • 22nd January – 28th January – Two way temporary traffic lights will be installed on Bridge Road at the junction of Chalkhill Road to enable Affinity Water to cross Bridge Road and install around thirty metres of water main in the bus lane north towards Forty Avenue. 

 

  • 29th January – 23rd February – A lane closure (Bus Lane) will be installed from outside Ark Academy to the junction of Forty Avenue, vehicles will be prohibited from turning left from Bridge Road into Forty Avenue and Barn Hill will also be closed at the junction of Forty Lane in both directions. This will enable the junction of Bridge Road, Forty Avenue and Forty Lane to be controlled with three way temporary traffic lights. Advanced warning signs will be placed at strategic locations advising motorists that there is no access to Forty Avenue and Barn Hill from Bridge Road for the duration of the works.

If we didn't have the concrete jungle built all around the Stadium we wouldn't need to increase the bloody water supply!

Yeah how are you supposed to get to Northwick Park hospital? 182 and 483 and 223 buses get stuck in traffic@

If you get a bus to Wembley Park or Preston Road to get a Met Line train to the hospital you also get stuck in traffic 😡

It means whatever you take it to mean. Some people complain no matter what!!! Don’t want roadworks so complain when they arise but if the utility companies don’t do these jobs there are complaints too - there’s no winning!!! Get a hobby, go abroad, explore new and wonderful things, life’s too short to be this boring and bitter.

It’s like people expect the area to stay exactly as it is till and way after we’re all dead and gone. Need to get your head out of the sand, it’s not the way the world works, there will always be progressive change and that’s okay!!! This is a reality that just needs to be accepted or you’re stressing yourself for no real reason other than at a detriment to your own health.

Roadworks in Park Lane near the junction with Wembley High Road - they are digging up the pavement and have put apedestrian route out into the road so half the road is closed with temporary traffic lights for cars - why couldn't they just say pavement is closed so cross the road and keep the road open???

Maybe it’s better to ask the council, you’ll find there’s usually method to the madness
