One of Jersey’s most heavily used roads, La Route de la Haule, carrying over 2,200 vehicles per hour, was last resurfaced 19 years ago. Now in poor condition, essential road maintenance work will be carried out starting Tuesday 30th January over a period of 14 weeks, managed by Transport and Technical Services.
The works will start at La Haule Slipway and continue to Bel Royal. The section of road between Beaumont and Bel Royal is in particularly poor condition and significant strengthening works are planned to reduce future maintenance costs.
To avoid the major traffic disruption and long delays, that would otherwise occur, the road will always be fully open for peak hour traffic and much of the work will be carried out during evenings (Monday to Fridays 6.30pm –2.00am), with all noisy working being strictly limited to before 11.00pm.
During the work times, diversions will be posted and these together with changes to the Connex bus service will be publicised well in advance.
More details about the project will be publicised nearer the time.
