Workers from Buckinghamshire Highways will be carrying out a number of roadwork operations across the county this week.

With drier and warmer weather tentatively upon us, Buckinghamshire Council’s highways teams are gearing up to tackle major planned works on roads around the county.

These include full resurfacing schemes, extensive plane and patchworks and permanent fixes on big road defects.

Roadworks nearly always have repercussions for travel around the county, however, so be sure to check the full programme of activities scheduled for this week, beginning May 13, to keep your journeys as stress-free as possible.
