Temporary road closure at Hart Crescent, Blackhall Rocks

Northumbrian Water has applied to the council for a temporary road closure order at Hart Crescent, Blackhall Rocks to enable them to carry out sewer replacement works next month.

The works are scheduled to begin on Monday 1 September and are estimated to take three weeks to complete. The Order is published below for further information but to be clear, the road is to be closed from the junction with the A1086 at Cod on the Rocks to the junction with Bevin Grove:

Hart Crescent, Blackhall Colliery
Temporary Road Closure Order
An Order is being made under the provisions of Section 14(1) of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 the effect of which will be to close to vehicular traffic from Monday 1 September 2014 a 70 metre length of Hart Crescent that extends south westwards from its junction with A1086 Coast Road, Blackhall Colliery.

The closure is necessary to enable new sewer installation works to be undertaken  which will probably take some 3 weeks to complete to be carried out to that length of road.

Throughout the period of closure an alternative route will be available to vehicular traffic from the eastern side of the closure from A1086 northwards then westwards onto C81 Mickle Hill Road and southwards onto the estate roads to the western side of the closure, and vice versa.
