Monday 20 May 2024 – Friday 24 May 2024 8:30pm-5:30am.          A contingency day is scheduled for Friday 25 May 2024 8:30pm to Saturday 26 May 2024 5:50am Wendover, Nash Lee Road overnight closure for inspection of the temporary bridge. There will be a fully signposted diversion route through Stoke Mandeville during the closure. 28 May 2024 – 31 May 2024 8:30pm – 5:30am Wendover, closure of Rocky Lane where it intersects with the HS2 works during the Bank Holiday weekend to carry out drainage and utility works. As it requires digging a large trench across the road the closure will be for all road users including pedestrians, motor vehicles and cyclists. There will be a fully signposted diversion. 25 May 2024-27 May 2024 24-hour closure. Wendover, change to temporary bridleway adjacent to Small Dean Lane due to construction works now taking place in the area. The temporary bridleway was provided due to the closure of Small Dean Lane in order to maintain public access as much as possible during the HS2 works. However, now construction works now in the area require the temporary bridleway to be closed. There are an alternative footpath and bridleway to provide access from the Wendover area using Bacombe Lane to access countryside to the west of the HS2 works. Closure of temporary bridleway from 13 May 2024 to 1 September 2025. Great Missenden, North Portal extended working hours 24 hours/day, 7 days a week from early February 2024 for approximately 6 months. This is for the two tunnel boring machines breaking through at the North Portal. Additional site lighting will be required and there may be some noise although this will be kept to a minimum. However, this work will be in the cutting so any impact will be reduced. Early February 2024 – approximately July 2024.
