What we are doing
Carriageway resurfacing and drainage works will be carried out on a night time closure between the hours of 7:00 pm and 6:00 am on Monday 3 February 2025 and until the morning of Saturday 1 March 2025, on the A379 Elburton Road to Brixton. Please note these works are subject to the weather and may face delays.
There will be no weekend working and the road will remain fully open during these times.
Why is the work being done
The works are being carried out due to the road reaching the end of it’s serviceable life.
Why does the road need to be closed
The road needs to be closed due to the width of the road, and the safety of the workforce.
Traffic management
The work will be carried out from 7:00 pm to 6:00 am.
The work will be carried out under a road closure and a signed diversion will be in place as follows:
Elburton Road, A379, Haye Road, Hercules Road, Main Street, Deep Lane, Devon Expressway, A38 to Avonwick, B3372, A3121, A379 and Vice Versa.
We are aware that this is a very long diversion but we have had to cater for heavy goods vehicles. However the diversion route directs traffic along a similar standard of road to that being closed so that all vehicles, including large articulated vehicles, can safely use the diversion route.
Access will always be maintained for emergency vehicles.
