City of York Council will be carrying out carriageway resurfacing works on the A1237/A19 Shipton Road roundabout adjacent Rawcliffe Bar P&R from Tuesday 9 May 2023.
To help ease traffic flow, works will take place at night, between 9pm and 6am, working week nights only. Weather permitting the scheme will be completed by 6am on Saturday 20 May 2023.
During the first week of the work, from Tuesday 9 May to Friday 12 May from 9pm at night to 6am the following morning, the A19 Shipton Road southeast of the roundabout (city side of the roundabout) will be closed between the roundabout and Manor Lane, as will the P&R access road. The other approaches to the roundabout will operate under multiway signals.
A signed diversion will be in place via the A19/A1036/A59 and A1237 during the closure of the A19 Shipton Road.
During the second week of the work, from Monday 15 May to Friday 19 May from 9pm at night to 6am the following morning, all approaches to the roundabout will operate under multiway signals except for the P&R access road, which will be closed.
Traffic management will be on-site during the works to assist motorists, pedestrians and cyclists.
During the day from 6am, the road will be fully reopened.
For safety reasons the speed limit will be reduced to 30mph on the approach to the roundabout for the full duration of the work. There will also be a temporary 40mph buffer zone approaching this 30mph zone on the A1237 and the A19 northwest of the roundabout.
As with any construction work, there is likely to be a certain amount of disruption and inconvenience to the public. However, everything will be done to keep this to a minimum.
