Woking Road toucan crossing
Work to install a new toucan crossing on Woking Road starts on Tuesday, May 6, 2025.
Project Details
The new crossing will replace the existing uncontrolled crossing between Old Woking Road and Fir Tree Road. A toucan crossing allows both pedestrians and cyclists to cross at the same time, improving safety and accessibility.
- Duration: Approximately 9 weeks (subject to weather conditions)
- Working hours: 7.30 am to 5.00 pm
- Evening/weekend work: Full overnight closures will be needed to resurface and white line the road.
Temporary Measures:
- Woking Road will remain open throughout the works. Only one lane will be closed at a time, either Northbound or Southbound, depending on the work requirements.
- Single-lane closures will be in place daily between 10:00 am and 4:00 pm. Closed lanes will reopen after 4:00 pm each day.
- To ensure public safety, a temporary pedestrian crossing will be installed. During the installation of the temporary crossing, a pedestrian diversion route will be in place.
- Temporary traffic lights will be used to safely manage vehicle flow during the works.
- Full overnight closures will be needed to resurface and white line the road. These closures will be split into two phases: approximately three nights, followed by a seven-day break, then a further two nights. Overnight hours would be from 8:00 pm to 6:00 am.
