Works to resurface the Hesleden access track

We have received the following information from a director of MD2, via the parish clerk, relating to resurfacing works taking place along the access track between Hesleden WMC and the pit-heap.


Works are due to be completed later today but we'll monitor progress, just to be sure. Please get in touch in the usual way if you have any queries in relation to this matter:

Just following up our meeting to confirm on Tuesday April 18th we will be undertaking works to tarmac the access track.

This will commence around 9.00am and consist of 12 no. tarmac wagons entering Hesleden from Myra Avenue and departing along Gray Avenue. We envisage the works will take about 4 – 5 hours.
The wagons will reverse down the access track to deliver the materials.
  
The works also include the tarmac placement on the walkway and alterations to the walkway wooden access posts (adjacent to the barriers) by reducing the  allowable distance between posts to deter quad bikes but still allowing wheelchair/cycle access. The tarmac on the walkway will be placed to fall to drain into the surrounding ditches.

The following pedestrian/traffic  management will be introduced.

·         Works in Progress signs along the access track and either side east-west along the walkway.

·         Pedestrian management along the walkway, if required.
