A3 TRUNK ROAD (SURREY)
TEMPORARY TRAFFIC RESTRICTIONS
Notice is hereby given that National Highways intends to make an Order on the A3 Trunk Road in the Counties of Surrey and Hampshire, under Sections 14(1)(a) and 14(1)(c) of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 because works are proposed to be executed on, or in the vicinity of, the road.
The effect of the Order would be to authorise the overnight closure of:
- both carriageways, in sections, of the A3 between Hook Underpass (A309) and Ockham Interchange (B2039/B2215), and all slip and link roads leading to and from those carriageways;
- any lay-by, bus stop or gap in the central reservation adjacent to the lengths of carriageway described in 1. above; and
- any side road at junction with the lengths of carriageway described in 1. above.
These measures would be in the interests of road safety while contractors undertake maintenance and renewal work of a cyclical nature and A3 project works.
The duration of each closure would vary depending on the nature of the maintenance work being undertaken on each occasion. The programme of works would start on or after 2nd January 2025.
Planned maintenance work would be scheduled to avoid disruption during known peak periods, although essential maintenance may be necessary during these periods to prevent the need for emergency works. Please see National Highways website for specific details on any upcoming closures.
Overnight closures taking place on the A3 and connecting roads between Hook Underpass and Ockham Interchange would be in operation between (maximum period):
- Monday – Thursdays: 22:00 – 05:30
- Fridays: 23:00 – 06:00
- Saturdays: 22:00 – 06:00
- Sundays: 22:30 – 05:30
(The A3 Order extends to Horndean not covered by this newspaper)
The Order would come into force on 2nd January 2025 and remain in force until 24th December 2025.
During closures above, traffic affected would be diverted using other junctions of the A3, or the A243, A244, A245, A246, A247, A25, A320, A322, B2039, B2070, B2171, B2215, B382, Bridge Road, Chillbrook Road, Downside Bridge Road, Downside Road, Forest Road, Horsley Road, and Old Lane. The diversion in operation would vary according to the closure in force, and the diversion roads listed above are the agreed routes, but these may change depending on local conditions.
The temporary closures and diversion routes would be clearly indicated by traffic signs when they are in operation during the works periods.
