Bus service diversion
Due to essential road works by Southern Gas at the junction of Sackville Road and Church Road, westbound buses are being diverted into Westbourne Gardens. This will be effective from 12th July and is likely to last for up to 3 weeks.
During the period of work four way temporary traffic signals will be used and the westbound services 49, 49A and 93 will operate from
In the autumn of 2009 Southern Gas Networks carried out extensive repairs to their mains in this junction. Initial attempts to seal the mains by spraying them with a sealant were unfortunately not successful due to the age of the mains and the design of the joints. This resulted in each leaking joint having to be individually repaired, which unfortunately protracted the works. These works did however successfully repair all the leaks present at that time.
However a further leak has now unfortunately been detected which is serious enough to require an immediate repair.
