CRONDALL LANE ROADWORKS UPDATED 10th April 2026

Delayed again until ist of May - and counting..............

Issue: Scheme enquiry ( Carriageway and Footway )
Location: Crondall Lane Farnham

We apologise for the time this issue has been ongoing for. Our contractor is developing a buildable solution for us to run through Atkins for validation. A Project Manager has been assigned to manage the potential landowner and access issues- so the job is moving forwards- but likely to be a few months before we're in a position to be on the ground to do the repair, but we're trying to get in there more quickly to de veg and fully survey the pipe under the road and the embankment slippage to confirm the extent of the repair. If it's just what we can see, we'll put a new headwall in from precast concrete units and locally replace the embankment. If the pipe running under the road is found to be damaged beyond repair, then we're probably going to need to close the road fully to excavate down to replace it which will take some time due to its depth. The temporary traffic signals are there to protect and stop traffic from driving too close to the damaged headwall to prevent any further damage.
