Please can you advise if a cost for this section of temporary C9 between Heathfield Terrace and Chiswick Lane has been determined (including estimated costs)?
The current estimated costs for the section between Heathfield Terrace and Chiswick Lane are approximately £1m. The estimate includes several unknown factors such as utilities costs and temporary traffic management. The final cost will be known when construction is completed.
Please can you confirm whether the contract will be completed (and/or paid for) by LB Hounslow or TfL?
This section between Heathfield Terrace and Chiswick Lane will be paid by TfL and the construction will be managed by LB Hounslow using their contractors Hounslow Highways.
Please can you confirm when you expect the work to be completed?
The final construction programme for the section between Heathfield Terrace and Chiswick Lane has not been fixed by LB Hounslow. Once the programme is agreed, residents and businesses will be contacted by the Council with further details.
Please can you provide the current estimate of the total cost, including tree removal and damage, of the section of Temporary C9 being implemented from Goldhawk Road to Chiswick Lane (including all traffic light work).
