Thanks to Annabel for letting us know the following …

There will be resurfacing work starting tomorrow (19th September) round the A415 the other side of the Marcham Interchange.

For two weeks an unnamed road will be closed day and night. It is first right off the Marcham Road soon after the A34 up to the junction with Barrow Road (for Shippon).

There will also be some overnight closures of more major roads while the resurfacing equipment is in the area. The A34 northbound slipway will be closed overnight for a week, and then the Marcham Road will be closed for 4 evenings and overnight.

The Heritage Weekend road closure signs have arrived. The diversion is down East St Helen Street and up West St Helen Street. While taking this picture I noticed there is a double yellow line one side,

and a triple yellow line the other. I checked the Highway Code but could not find triple yellow lines.

The large hole that unearthed an old coal cellar under the High Street pavement has been filled in. The pavement has been made as good as new – possibly better.

Alongside another hole has been dug, not quite as deep as the first. Traffic passes in single file at this point, and buses cannot use the High Street bus stops for the third or fourth week in a row.

Bus stops on the High Street in Abingdon have been closed for the last week because of work opposite.

Anybody wanting to catch a bus from Abingdon to Oxford will need to go instead to Stratton Way.

Thames Water are improving our sewer system, and have opened up a very big hole. They expect work to finish on 20-05-2016,
