I have been chasing an update on when the proposed highways work at the Dyneley Arms will be starting. I have now received the information below:
"Dear Cllr Anderson,
The purchase of the permanent land and the licence for the compound land are now in place.
We have confirmed the following:
- Revised costs and timelines with our preferred contractor;
- The construction is scheduled to start end of July (max. 6 month programme including stats work);
- Updated business case has been submitted to the scheme funder (West Yorkshire Combined Authority) for the approval of the revised costs and timescales, decision in June to confirm the funding, we don’t envisage any problems.
Next Steps:
- Liaise with our Network Management Team for Traffic Management, key junction for people travelling to and from the airport;
- Colas (preferred contractor) to mobilise;
- Start engagement with local ward members;
- Inform all users of the forthcoming works;
- Start on-site late July 2022;
- Completion Jan 2023 (worst case scenario, could be sooner)."
