A34/M40 Junction 9 (Wendlebury) improvementsA project to improve traffic flow on the A34/M40 Junction 9 interchange near Bicester in Oxfordshire is now in its final stages. The scheme will increase the capacity of the junction, improve traffic flow and reduce the safety risk of traffic queuing for the exit on the M40 main carriageway. Narrow lanes are in place on the southbound carriageway of the A34 and a lane closure at the top of the M40 northbound exit slip road. There is a reduced speed limit of 40mph through the area.This scheme is scheduled to be completed by the middle of February 2011.A34 / M40 Junction 9 Signals UpgradeAs part of the A34/M40 Junction 9 (Wendlebury) Improvement scheme, the traffic signals at the interchange are being upgraded to new extra low voltage (ELV) LED lights. Work is being carried out at night, using the existing roadworks for the junction improvement scheme, with overnight lane closures as required. Work is expected to be completed this month.A404(M) Western Region Railway BridgeWork to replace the Western Region Railway Bridge on the A404(M) near Maidenhead continues this week. The first new section of the bridge has been constructed and moved into place and work can now start on building the next section of the bridge deck. Two narrow lanes will be available at peak times in each direction, and a 40mph speed limit remains in place. This scheme is expected to be completed this summer.M4 Ascot Road Bridge Maintenance WorksWork is taking place to strengthen the bridge supports and ensure the continued safety of the Ascot Road bridge which carries the A330 over the M4 motorway between junctions 8/9 and 7. The scheme started on 24 January, and should take 12 weeks to complete. Most work will be carried out overnight between 10pm and 5.30am; however some activities will be carried out during daytime hours.Throughout the scheme there will be 24 hour narrow lane running on both the eastbound and westbound carriageway of the M4, with overnight lane closures on the slip roads at the M4 Junction 8/9 and the main carriageway. Three lanes will remain open on each carriageway during peak hours. During the main phase of work there will be a speed restriction of 50mph, enforced by average speed cameras.M4 Oareborough Bridge Maintenance WorkMaintenance work continues this week on the Oareborough Bridge over the M4 at Hermitage, near junction 13. The work involves refurbishing the drainage systems, installing new access steps and replacing slope paving as well as maintaining the existing barrier on the bridge. Some barriers by the bridge supports will also be replaced. The work started on 17 January and is expected to take five weeks to complete. Work will mainly be carried out between 9am and 5pm each day with a hard shoulder closure in place around the bridge on both sides of the road throughout. There will also be occasional off-peak single lane closures.M4 Grassland MaintenanceWork is taking place at various locations on the M4 between junctions 12 and 15 and between 5 and 6, to maintain grassland areas.

Most work is being carried out during the day, although one more night of overnight work is planned on Friday 11 February, while traffic management is altered and new road markings are installed. During the overnight works, lane closures will be in place and traffic will be escorted past the works at 10mph.Work on the southbound carriageway, will also require a temporary closure of Lea Coach Road, during which a fully signed diversion route will be in place. The work is expected to complete by the end of February.Bedhampton Roundabout Improvement WorksA nine month scheme led by Havant Borough Council to improve the junction at the Bedhampton Roundabout (also known as the Rusty Cutter Roundabout), just off junction 5 of the A3(M) in Hampshire, began in October 2010.

Work is expected to be complete on Friday 18 February 2011.A31 Vehicle Activated SignsWork to install Vehicle Activated Signs at a number of locations along the A31 began on Monday 31 January. The signs will help to improve safety by warning drivers of potential queues ahead, informing of vehicle turning movements ahead, and remind drivers of the speed limit. Radar units are also being installed to help the signs work and to establish accurate data about traffic flows, speed and incidents.The work is expected to take four weeks to complete, with approximately three days of work at each location. Most work will be carried out overnight (9pm - 5.30am), with temporary lane closures as necessary. One location, at Poulner Hill, will require an overnight closure of the southbound exit slip road at the junction on two separate nights in mid and late February, for which a fully signed diversion route will be in place.
