Colne Valley Viaduct crossing of Moorhall Road- road closure

The Colne Valley Viaduct (CVV) will cross Moorhall Road at a point between Korda Lake and Savay Lake, just south of the Grand Union Canal. The building of the support structures for the crossing, and the crossing of the road itself, require a series of traffic management phases starting with a single lane closure, followed by overnight road closures and then a full road closure during the day and night to allow this to be done safely.

Phased road traffic management on Moorhall Road from Saturday 15 July to Friday 27 October 2023, ranging from a single lane closure to a full road closure for all vehicles from Friday 28 July to Friday 18 August 2023.

The route 331 bus from Uxbridge to Ruislip (via Denham) will be rerouted during the periods of full road closure of Moorhall Road. Transport for London operate this bus service and full information of service changes will be provided at https:tfl.gov.uk/bus/status/ in advance of the road closures.

Out of Hours Flying at RAF Northolt

On 13th and 14th Jul RAF Northolt will be conducting calibration flights out of hours. Some context for any resident querying this action is the need for periodic evaluation of navigational aids used in aviation, such as flight procedures and electronic signals, to ensure they are safe and accurate. These procedures are better served during quieter times but would politely request the continued support and patience from our local residents to undertake this vital tasking.

Please note that the TBM conveyor is due to come into operation by the end of February 2023. Until then, HS2 need to move more material away from the West Ruislip portal to allow the TBMs to continue their work. Some of this material will be temporarily stored on sites around the area. The material will be delivered to two locations:
– area north of the Chiltern Line, west of Breakspear Road South at site at Gate 2
– area south of the Copthall Covert at site at Gate 1 on Harvil Road

At present, the only way they can do this is by using lorries to transport the soil from the TBMs. As a result, there will be additional lorry movements on roads around West Ruislip. However, they will adhere to the total 550 movements per day in Hillingdon. The affected routes are Breakspear Road South crossing, Harvil Road, Swakeleys Road and Ickenham High Road. This means the route is from Swakeleys roundabout and Ickenham village to West Ruislip portal site, from there the material will be transported via the haul road at Breakspear Road South to gate 2 and 1 on Harvil Road.
