Current roadworks, planned roadworks and road closures

14 October - 19 December 2024 

Cadent, which manages the local gas network, will be carrying out a project which will see gas mains being replaced to future proof the network and ready pipes for the introduction of biogases. With gas pipes being decades old, it is essential that they are replaced to future proof the network and minimise the amount of repair work that we must be done in the area over the coming years.

Major works to replace 1,100 metres of gas pipes on Dale Road and Castle Hill are essential to keeping homes in the area warm. To avoid causing disruption, these works are planned to commence from October. Road closures may be necessary.

All parties have worked together to plan the closures and minimise the disruption caused and ensure that the services to and from the city centre are maintained for the duration of the work.

 

November: Dale Road from Low Road to Junction Castle Hill, Elm Green Lane, Station Road

December: Castle Avenue, Castle Hill, Castle Hill from Castle Street to Low Road

We’re improving sustainable transport facilities in Doncaster to provide new walking and cycling infrastructure and improved connections to green spaces, schools and employment sites. These improvements are part of a wider plan to develop a better connected and safer network of walking and cycling routes, offering people more choice of how they travel, and reducing reliance on vehicles.

Thorne Road Tranforming Cities Fund Scheme - Phase 2

The works include re-kerbing the north side to create a footway/cycleway, infilling the subway, installation of traffic signals, ducting and planing and carpeting the road from Wentworth Road to Town Fields. 

 

These works are now complete apart from some pedestrian guard railing which needs to be installed.

A stage 3 RSA safety inspection will be undertaken shortly and depending on the outcome of this, some remedial works may follow

 

We thank you for your patience throughout this challenging scheme.

National Highways are undertaking major works on the A1 north of Doncaster to include Junction 39 at Wentworth Viaduct. Further information can be found on the National Highways website. 

Work began in the area on Monday 15 January 2024 

Access for residents will be maintained during any closures however YW may need to ask you to wait while we move machinery to let you pass. YW will kindly request that journeys through closures are kept to a minimum during our working hours, this will help them complete the work as quickly as possible. On-street parking may be restricted during the work, but off-street parking will be maintained.

Your bin collections will not be affected, please put your bin out as normal and the team will make sure it is emptied

If your water supply is to be affected, you’ll receive a hand delivered card warning you of the dates and times in advance. YW will not need access into your homes as part of this work, please remember to always ask for identification before letting anyone in to your home.

Works started on 15/01/2024 to upgrade and signalise the junction with Bawtry Road, Blyth Road and Stripe Road at Tickhill Spital. The works will be carried out under multiway signals which are to be manually controlled between the hours of 07:00 and 19:00 to help regulate traffic. This scheme is currently facing some unexpected engineering difficulties and is expected to be complete by the end of January 2025.

 
A630 West Moor Link
Works started some time ago to construct a new roundabout for a housing development. From 07.05.24 2 way traffic signals are in place which will be controlled by an operative between the hours of 07:00 and 19:00 in order to keep traffic flowing in either direction. 

Phase 5 will involve the final phase of S278 works to allow completion of the new carriageway, there will be continued use of 2-way temporary traffic signals to allow works to continue safely for the remaining phase.  

There will be a requirement to close sections of the A630 for final resurfacing works.  These will take place over a series of night-time closures when traffic flows are at their lowest. Due to delays in the programme this is anticipated towards the end of December 2024.

Following completion of the carriageway there will be further works to enable LV cables to be laid for the Streetlighting connections, this will be under signals during off peak times to minimise disruption.  These work will be in the footway from Hatfield lane, Armthorpe around to West Moor link, however the current pedestrian diversion will remain in place throughout
