WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR TRANSPORT AND TECHNICAL SERVICES BY DEPUTY G.C.L. BAUDAINS OF ST. CLEMENT
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 1st APRIL 2014
Question
Would the Minister inform members whether that the JEC will need to re-open some of the company's recent trench work in order to put the new high voltage cable into the ducting and, if so, advise where those roadworks will be, when they will take place and for how long, and how his department will mitigate any ensuing traffic disruption?
In the event some of that work will be in the newly re-surfaced Rue à Don, would the Minister explain how that fits in with the moratorium on digging up freshly re-surfaced roads?
Answer
There are three remaining road work' packets associated with the JEC's Normandie III' project to be carried out on roads administered by TTS by its contractor Prysmian Group (and sub-contractor Jayen):-
- La Rue a Don - Construction of Joint Bay 5 / 6 and Cable Pulling – 12th March to 12th April: The work is being carried out under Portable Traffic Signals and is located between La Cache des Pres and Paddock End. This section of road was specifically omitted from TTS' phase 1' resurfacing of La Rue a Don in 2013 and is not under embargo.
- Plat Douet Road - Duct Crossing – 13th to 27th April (Easter School Holidays): The work which will provide a link between recently installed ducts in La Grande Route de St. Clement (Inner Rd.) and Green Road will provide the final link in the duct network from Gorey to South Hill. La Grande Route de St. Clement (the Inner Rd.) will be closed at its junction with Plat Douet Road between 9am
and 9pm daily from Sunday 13th April until Friday 18th April. The road will be then reopened over the Easter Weekend. Plat Douet Road will then be closed between Green Road and La Grande Route de
la Cote (the Coast Road) until Sunday 27th April.
- La Greve d'Azette - Construction of Joint Bay 1 / 2 and Cable Pulling – 28th April to 14th June: The work is being carried out under Portable Traffic Signals and will be located just to the east of Beach Road with the joint bay being sited off to the side of the road.
None of the above works are sited on newly resurfaced road.
Note: Unrelated to this the JEC have agreed to fund the full lane width resurfacing of the Coast Road from Green Road to South Hill, which will be carried out by TTS once the JEC's trench line has been deemed stable and unlikely to settle.
