Bus passengers on a route serving parts of Carlton are being warned to expect delays and be aware a diversion will be in place while roadworks takes place to put in a cycle path.
Morley Road will be closed from today (11) and will reopen on Thursday, October 17
During the road closure Blue 39 will divert via Forester Road and Standhill Road.
This will mean the following stops cannot be served:
- Porchester Rd, Morley Rd, N-bound
- Hillview Road, SE-bound
- Prospect Road, E-bound
- Foxhill Road West, S-bound
While the diversion is in place buses will be ‘hail and ride’ along Forester Road and Foxhill Road West. NCT advised passengers requesting the bus to do it in plenty of time for the driver to stop safely.
Work began on the two-way cycle path on Porchester Road back in July and the Nottingham City Council said they expect work to be completed in December.
The new cycle route is expected to cost around £1.7m with the cash coming from the Active Travel Fund.
