Bletchley Flyover Bridge – Enabling and Vegetation Clearance Works

Please be advised that, from Saturday 1 August, works will commence at the Bletchley Flyover Bridge on Saxon Street and are expected to continue for approximately six weeks.

These activities will involve enabling works and vegetation clearance in preparation for the construction of the replacement bridge, which is currently scheduled to begin in Spring 2027.

Our standard working hours will be:

• Monday to Friday: 8:00am – 5:00pm

In addition, the following weekend and night-time works will be required:

• Saturday 1 August and Sunday 2 August: Night shift, 11:00pm – 11:00am
• Saturday 15 August and Sunday 16 August: Night shift, 11:00pm – 11:00am
• Sunday 23 August: Day shift, 7:00am – 7:00pm
• Sunday 30 August: Day shift, 7:00am – 7:00pm

During these works, a rail excavator will be used to remove redundant railway track, alongside handheld equipment for vegetation clearance activities.

No road closures are necessary for these works, as they are confined entirely to the rail corridor.

We will make every effort to minimise noise and disruption wherever possible. We apologise for any inconvenience these works may cause and thank you for your patience and understanding while this essential work is carried out.

If you have any questions regarding the works, please do not hesitate to contact the project team.
