So things are not actually going to go ahead as described yesterday, and there is a further delay. Here's the update this morning from Cllr Maja Hilton:
After all the promise that the resurfacing will start Wednesday night, this email was sent to the Council officer later yesterday:
I would just like to confirm that the drainage connection on Dartmouth Road next to Heron House will be completed by tomorrow midday that will then allow us to backfill and compact the sub base to the lower layers of the road construction.
As we will need to reinstate the carriageway to match the existing concrete carriageway by fixing Dowel bars and placing C32- C 40 High strength Concrete, the concrete will need time to cure before placing the Layers of Binder Course and Surface Course
The Concrete needs a minimum of 7 days Curing as we are using high early strength concrete we can reduce the curing time to 3 days dependant on weather conditions we would recommend that the resurfacing is carried out next Monday 30th April for 3 nights plus 1 night contingency starting south end of the project allowing extra time for the concrete to cure in the middle of the project .
Cutis will amend all surfacing information notices and extending the permit with our permitting manager.
