Title: Congestion caused as Ray Mead Road roundabout works begin
Post by: Cookham Webmaster on February 10, 2021, 06:43:03 PM
Watch out, I have just been caught up in this chaos on the way to an appointment in Slough.

Long queues of traffic sat on the A4 this week after the council began work on the Ray Mead Road roundabout.

Congestion was rife – despite the national lockdown – near Maidenhead Bridge and Bath Road as the Royal Borough upgrades the roundabout opposite the Thames Riviera hotel.

Work here will run daily between 9am and 3.30pm until Friday, February 19, and forms part of a £6million project between the council and Thames Valley Local Enterprise Partnership.

Vehicles are being controlled by traffic lights with temporary lane closures in operation.

The pedestrian island will be reduced in size and capacity increased for traffic approaching the roundabout, so two vehicles can approach it side-by-side.

Work on Oldfield Road roundabout in Maidenhead will begin on Monday 8 March. The work will replace the existing roundabout with a traffic lit junction to improve the flow of traffic and make it easier for pedestrians and cyclists to cross the junctions.

As part of these works, Oldfield Road will be closed overnight from Monday 8 to Wednesday 10 March from 8pm to 6am.
