Traffic Management
We continue to work hard to keep traffic running smoothly during the work. We have fortnightly traffic management meetings with Surrey and Hampshire County Councils as well as Surrey and Hampshire police to review the operation of the current traffic management and plan the next phases.
During the weekdays we will always allow traffic on the A3 to flow in both directions throughout the construction period.
You can find details of the latest traffic management layout from our newsletters. When we have significant changes traffic management we publicise those changes in newsletters and on local radio. Traffic management details for the south end can be found in Newsletter No13.
The length of A3 under traffic management at the north end of the scheme will remain until the project is complete. Northbound traffic between the old end of the single carriageway and the site offices uses the Boundless Thursley link while southbound traffic uses the northbound carriageway and a temporary link to the existing A3. For safety reasons there is a 40mph speed limit enforced by safety cameras.
All A3 traffic now uses the new southbound carriageway in two-way working between the new Hazel Grove junction and the Canadian Memeorial. Traffic is in a single lane with a 50mph speed limit enforced by average speed cameras. There is now access from Knockhundred Lane to the A3 southbound carriageway. Access to and from the A3 and Hammer Lane is via the old A3 and the Hazel Grove junciton. There is single way working with traffic lights on the old A3 between Hazel Grove and Hammer lane.
By July 2010 we plan to complete all the works south of Hazel Grove.
