Transport for London (TfL) is warning of traffic disruption along the A40 eastbound from 08:00pm today, 14 March.

This is due to urgent works to repair a leaking water main by Thames Water, after confirmation this morning that the works would proceed. 

Thames Water has advised that they will do everything possible to clear the road of works before 05:00 on Monday 17 March.
 
The works, which will take place between Greenford Road and Alperton Lane, will see the A40 be reduced to one lane eastbound.

Drivers are advised to find alternative routes and avoid using the A40 eastbound between Greenford roundabout and Hanger Lane roundabout where possible.

Current work to replace the A40 bridges at Wales Farm Road and Perryn Road, which is being carried out separately by Transport for London (TfL), will be continuing as normal while the work by Thames Water is completed.
