Kier Highways, on behalf of Highways England, will be resurfacing a section of the A34 northbound carriageway from the Milton Interchange to Abingdon, to ensure the network remains in a safe and serviceable condition. Highways England undertakes the majority of resurfacing works on the Strategic Road Network using a lower noise material. This material is thinner than conventional Hot Rolled Asphalt and has qualities which reduces noise levels.
The work is currently scheduled to start on Monday 18 September 2017 and is expected to be completed by Friday 13 October 2017 (Monday to Friday only) – please be aware that these works have been carefully programmed but are subject to change due to weather conditions or unforeseen circumstances.
In order to carry out the work as efficiently and safely as possible, the A34 northbound carriageway will be closed from the A4130 Milton Interchange to the A415 Marcham Interchange. A clearly signed diversion will be in place via the A417 to Wantage, north on the A338, then the A420 to re-join the A34 at the Botley Interchange.
Access will be maintained for emergency services on blue-light calls.
Confirmed dates for the closures will be displayed in advance on signs along the A34.
