Night-time work to reconstruct and resurface roads in and around Crawley get underway next week.

The scheme, which is estimated to cost £3.5 million will see around 6km of carriageway resurfaced in the works.

75% of the materials used will come from sustainable sources, including 10% recycled construction product. Advances in design also mean the new surfaces will be quieter and have reduced spray.

Signed diversion routes will be in place for each site.

The affected roads are:

• A2220 between Cheals roundabout and Bewbush roundabout
• A2011 between Tushmore roundabout and Northgate (Hazelwick) roundabout
• A2011 Northgate roundabout
• A2011 westbound carriageway between M23 and Northgate roundabout

The works will be carried out at night-time only under a full road closure, running from 8pm to 6am each day, in order to minimise the impact on road users. Signed diversion routes will be in place for each site. Roads will reopen for daytime traffic on a temporary road surface. Road speeds will be restricted to 30mph until the final surface has been laid.
