Signs have appeared on the Vineyard in Abingdon warning that the road will be closed for 5 nights from 25th September.
There will be traffic signals from Wednesay 20th to Friday 22 September, 8pm to 6am, for preparatory work – replacing damaged kerbs and manholes.
Then the road will be closed for 5 nights from 25th September for resurfacing and re-painting the road markings.
During the closure bus services will be diverted , and cars will need to find another way round.
Just BEFORE the fair comes? Good planning.
Yes, that is good planning. Rather than when the fair is on.
Why do the signs say slightly different things, and why is one sign partly obscured by the other?
I wondered that when i saw them, but Backstreeters article explains: the first few nights there will be preparatory work, with temporary traffic lights ; after that the road will be closed for the next few nights.
Just when there’s going to be chaos on the Abingdon Road in Oxford. Good Planning! What’s going to happen to the Abingdon-Oxford bus services? Are arrangements posted anywhere?
