A main road in and out of Ryde is to be resurfaced by Island Roads next week.
Easthill Road will be resurfaced between The Strand and Appley Road in a scheme scheduled to begin on Monday 3rd April and last 6 nights. The road was meant to be resurfaced in 2016 but suffered multiple set backs.
The work will be undertaken overnight Monday-Friday during the hours of 19:30 and 06:00 in order to minimise inconvenience to road users.
During work there will be a road closure and a signed diversion in place but pedestrian access will be maintained. Residents should already have received letters explaining how the work will affect them.
The resurfacing follows a period of preparatory work which has involved extensive laying of new kerbstones.
Project manager Derek Benfield has said:
“This is a busy road serving the seafront area of the town so we are working overnight to reduce disruption”.
“As with all our schemes we would like to thank residents and road users in advance for their co-operation.”
