CEA started last month and runs to late January, with a break for a week during the Fieldays in late November/early December.
The works are being done under speed restrictions and traffic management. Access for vehicles and path users is being maintained at all times.
The second stage, installing the safety improvements, will start in early 2023 and take about three months.
"Over the last year we have completed the business case to improve the safety of this intersection for all users but particularly for those travelling on foot or by bike," Wilton says.
The business case pointed to a staged approach:
● Implement the road-level improvements
● Monitor the performance of the interchange and levels of benefits
● Monitor progress on the Southern Links project to understand whether this interchange will be bypassed in the future and therefore the need for further separation of vehicles and pedestrians/cyclists.
