FOOTBRIDGES TO BE BUILT ACROSS WATERLOO ROAD
*****
COVERED 34-METRE FOOTBRIDGES WILL BE BUILT OVER WATERLOO ROAD, AT DERBY ROAD AND AT DURHAM ROAD, TO PROVIDE GRADE-SEPARATED PEDESTRIAN CROSSINGS.
THE FOOTBRIDGE AT DERBY ROAD WILL HAVE SPECIALLY DESIGNED RAMPS TO ASSIST PHYSICALLY HANDICAPPED PERSONS. STAIRCASES ARE
TO BE BUILT AT THE DURHAM ROAD FOOTBRIDGE.
WHEN THE FOOTBRIDGES ARE IN USE, THE PEDESTRIAN CROSSINGS ON WATERLOO ROAD AT ITS JUNCTIONS WITH LANCASHIRE ROAD AND DURHAM ROAD WILL BE CLOSED. THIS WILL IMPROVE TRAFFIC FLOW.
A DAMAGED SECTION OF LANCASHIRE ROAD BETWEEN WATERLOO ROAD AND OXFORD ROAD WILL ALSO BE RECONSTRUCTED.
THE HIGHWAYS DEPARTMENT IS INVITING TENDERS FOR BUILDING THE FOOTBRIDGES. WORK IS EXPECTED TO START IN FEBRUARY AND TAKE 15 MONTHS TO COMPLETE.
