Upcoming closure required on A316 London Road roundabout for TfL works

The next phase of Transport for London (TfL) works on the A316 London Road roundabout will begin on Saturday 5 April.

The next phases of work will focus on the north and south islands of the roundabout. These works are scheduled from Saturday 5 April until Thursday 17 April.

What the TfL works mean for residents

For safety reasons, a temporary north/south directional closure of the roundabout will be required during this period. Traffic on London Road (north/south movements) will be diverted to the adjacent roundabouts on the A316, at either Whitton Road or St Margarets Road. However, east/west movements on the A316 will be retained at all times. 

Please plan your journeys accordingly.

Richmond Council aims to minimise disruption

To streamline works, Richmond Council will be constructing two new zebra crossings during the TfL closure on London Road. These crossings will be at the junction of Ivybridge Close and Fulwood Gardens and will replace the existing pedestrian traffic islands.

Shift patterns have been extended until 7pm to ensure the necessary works are completed whilst London Road is closed at the roundabout. These works will also involve localised pavement widening and carriageway resurfacing later in the summer.
