Victoria Way remains open to traffic despite lane closure

Date: 

Saturday, 22 January, 2022

A water leak has closed two west-bound lanes along Victoria Way before the junction with Chobham Road (A3046). However, the highway remains open to vehicles.

Road users approaching the two-lane closure are being diverted onto the Chobham Road slip road before continuing their onward journey along Victoria Way.

It is expected that exploratory excavation works will confirm the source of the leak as coming from one of a network of district heating pipes that carries pressurised hot water.

Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGVs) are urged to avoid the lane closure by taking an alternative route to their destination via the Six Crossroads roundabout.

More information will be provided once these initial works are complete and confirm the extent of the leak and duration of any lane closures.

We would like to thank road users and residents for their patience during these essential works.
