<a href="https://enjoywalthamforest.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/LBWF-FINAL_DRAFT_Howard-Road-Temp-Closure-Letter-Diversion-Plan.pdf"></a> Forest Road - Overnight road resurfacing Road resurfacing work between Farnan Avenue and Gaywood Road is due to begin on the evening of Monday 4 October 2021 for five nights and is estimated to be completed by Saturday 9 October 2021. The works will be carried out in two phases over the five nights:
- Phase 1- Monday 4 October to Wednesday 6 October: Forest Road will be closed between Hoe Street and Gaywood Road from 9pm to 5am 
- Phase 2- Thursday 7 October to Friday 8 October: No road closures will be required during the resurfacing works on Forest Road between Falmer Avenue and Hoe Street from 8pm to 5am. Localised parking restrictions and traffic management will be in place during this period.This is essential work that cannot be carried out during the daytime due to the amount of traffic present on Forest Road. The resurfacing will be carried out overnight, Monday to Friday, between 9pm and 5am. Some disruption and noise is inevitable with this type of work, however, every effort will be made to keep inconvenience to a minimum. Subject to progress, the work should be completed by Saturday 10 October.To allow the resurfacing work to be carried out safely and efficiently between Hoe Street and Gaywood Road, Forest Road will be closed to all traffic. Diversions for through traffic and the 123 bus will be in operation and signed via Chingford Road, Billet Road and Blackhorse Lane E17. <a href="https://enjoywalthamforest.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Bell-Junction-overnight-works-letter-September-2021.pdf">View the full letter here</a> <a href="https://enjoywalthamforest.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/FINAL-DRAFT_Bell-Jctn-Overnight-Resurfacing-Letter-Surfacing-diversion-plan.pdf">View the traffic management arrangements here.</a> Bell Junction highway works: Temporary closure of Howard Road and new permanent No Entry restriction from Forest Road Temporary closureAs part of the Bell Junction construction works, highway construction works at the junction of Howard Road and Forest Road are due to begin on Monday 4 October 2021 and are expected to be completed by 17 December 2021. In order to carry out the works in a safe and efficient manner it is necessary to close Howard Road at its junction with Forest Road to motorised vehicles. During this period a signed diversion route via Falmer Place will be put in place and access to all properties will always be maintained. No other roads will be affected during this period. <a href="https://enjoywalthamforest.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/LBWF-FINAL_DRAFT_Howard-Road-Temp-Closure-Letter-Diversion-Plan.pdf">A plan of the diversion route and new highway layout can be found <a href="http://herewww.enjoywalthamforest.co.uk/work-in-your-area/forest-road">here</a> .</a> The measures being introduced are outlined below:<li>A new “point no-entry” at the junction of Howard Road and Forest Road. Introducing a point no-entry on Howard Road means that two-way traffic on Howard Road will be maintained but there will be no through-traffic from Forest Road</li> <li>Cyclists will be exempt from the no-entry restriction. Signage will be installed throughout the area to ensure that the new restrictions are clear to road users in the area, so that they can re-route their journeys around the area as necessary</li> <li>A new Copenhagen style “blended” crossing will be created at the junction of Forest Road to improve cycle and pedestrian safety and accessibility</li> <li>The footways will be widened</li> <li>New cycle tracks will be installed</li> <li>“Keep Clear” markings will also be introduced on Forest Road to assist vehicles exiting Howard Road onto Forest Road.</li>Permanent No Entry restriction from Forest Road When the Bell Junction construction work is finished, the junction of Howard Road and Forest Road will be narrowed with new wider footways and cycle <a href="http://tracks.As">tracks. As</a> this will reduce the amount of road space in Forest Road, we anticipate that any vehicles waiting to turn into Howard Road from Forest Road are more likely to block the junction, leading to increased congestion, delays and potential safety issues. Therefore, to ensure that the new junction layout operates safely and efficiently, motorised vehicles will only be permitted to exit Howard Road onto Forest Road in a northbound direction. All vehicles wishing to access Howard Road when travelling along Forest Road will only be permitted to do so by using Falmer Road, Hurst Road and Seaford Road respectively.The emergency services have been informed of the working arrangements and access for fire, police and ambulance will be maintained throughout the work. <a href="https://enjoywalthamforest.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Howard-Road-works-update-letter-September-2021.pdf">View the full letter here</a> <a href="https://enjoywalthamforest.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Howard-Road-works-update-letter-September-2021.pdf"></a> <a href="https://enjoywalthamforest.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/LBWF-FINAL_DRAFT_Howard-Road-Temp-Closure-Letter-Diversion-Plan.pdf">View the traffic management arrangements here.</a> <a href="https://enjoywalthamforest.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/FINAL-DRAFT_Bell-Jctn-Overnight-Resurfacing-Letter-Surfacing-diversion-plan.pdf"></a> <a href="https://enjoywalthamforest.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/FINAL-DRAFT_Bell-Jctn-Overnight-Resurfacing-Letter-Surfacing-diversion-plan.pdf"></a> <a href="https://enjoywalthamforest.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/FINAL-DRAFT_Bell-Jctn-Overnight-Resurfacing-Letter-Surfacing-diversion-plan.pdf"></a> Thank you in advance for your patience while the works are being carried out, if you would like more information about the project or to discuss the construction work further, please email questions to <a href="http://enjoy@walthamforest.gov.uk">enjoy@walthamforest.gov.uk</a>

Planned works for Forest Road and Howard Road - October 2021

From 30 June work is planned to start on the north east side of the Bell Junction between Chingford Road and Farnan Avenue. The work includes the installation of a segregated cycle track, laying new kerbs between Chingford Road and Farnan Avenue, upgrading the footway with new paving to match what has been installed on the north west side of the Bell Junction and the construction of a blended &quot;Copenhagen&quot; crossing (also known as a continuous footway) at Kenilworth Avenue.Access to Kenilworth Avenue and Farnan Avenue will be maintained and we expect this work to take 4 weeks to complete, after which we will move onto the next phase of works in Chingford Road and Hoe Street.For more information on the Bell Junction scheme <a href="https://forestroadlsp.commonplace.is/proposals/forest-road-london-streetspace-plan-lsp">click here.</a>
