B

 Please can I have any estimated date for the move of Overdale resources to Les Quennevais school site?

C

Please can I have details of any agreed public transport links to relocated Overdale facilities.

Response 

A

The micro asphalt is due to be applied to the remaining sections of Route Orange during the second quarter in 2023 (April – June).

This is an overlay and does not require any significant excavation, therefore, any disruption to traffic is minimised.

B

The response to the following question, numbered 4.3, is contained within the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) section, on the Our Hospital website. 

'When will the existing healthcare services move to Les Quennevais? For how long?' 

The Our Hospital FAQs can be accessed using the following link, therefore, Article 23 (Information accessible to applicant by other means) of the Freedom of Information (Jersey) Law 2011 has been applied.
