Reading Borough Council intends to make an order in accordance with Section 14(1) of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 to close to pedestrian traffic the south footway on Crown Street from its junction with Newark Street to its junction with Southampton Street.
The duration of the Order is from 8.00am to 1.00pm on Sunday 19th July 2009 or until the works are completed whichever is sooner. The purpose of the closure is to allow air conditioning units to be placed onto Regents Gate Roof using a crane.
The alternative route for pedestrian traffic is to cross the road using pedestrian facilities at the London Street and Southampton Street junctions to use the footway on the opposite side.
Let's hope Tesco aren't blocking the north side pavements with their delivery vehicles that day!
