A684 SAFER ROADS FUND – CRAKEHALL RESURFACING WORKS – Road Closures from 11 October

North Yorkshire Highways have informed us of the following:

Hanson Contracting on behalf of North Yorkshire County Council will be
undertaking resurfacing of the carriageway of the A684 throughout Crakehall. The works include
replacement of the full width of the road surface on the A684 through the extents of the 30mph speed
limit, please see attached plan for further detail.

The map can be viewed below:

70085043-WSP-A684GLC-005 LOCATION-005

These works are currently programmed to commence on Monday 11th October 2021 and are expected
to last for up to 2 and a half weeks. Please note that during the construction of the scheme it will be
necessary to close the A684 in both directions through Crakehall to enable the surfacing work to be
carried out safely. To minimise the disruption this closure may cause the works will be restricted to off
peak hours, 09.30-15.30 each day.

On-site personnel will assist in managing access to properties and businesses within the closure.
However, please be advised there may be extended periods of time when access will not be possible
due to the nature of the works and physical constraints of the site. A signed diversion route will be in
place.

Please note, this work is part of an extensive programme and therefore it is possible that some
adjustment to this start date or the duration of the works may be necessary should unforeseen
circumstances such as significant weather events or emergencies on the highway network arise.
We request your assistance in the following ways: –
 Please contact the Council Customer Service Centre, 01609 780780, to advise of any special
access needs you may require during the work period.
 Whilst works in are progress please contact the Contract Manager, 07970 036603, for any site
specific queries or concerns.
 Cooperate and comply with any instructions issued by site staff and the Traffic Safety & Control
Officer and take extra care whilst near the works area.
