From 27 October SGN engineers will start a programme of work to replace gas mains, renew services, and make connections in Fishbourne, Chichester. These works are essential to ensure they can continue to provide residents with a safe and efficient gas supply and avoid disruptive gas leaks in the future.

Due to the location of the gas pipes in the road and for everyone’s safety, they will need to have varying traffic management in place.

SGN Has planned these works in the following phases – these timelines are for guidance.

Phase one: Main Road, Fishbourne Road – 27 October for duration of 8 weeks

Multiway temporary traffic lights – SGN will be working from outside Home Farm, Main Road to outside 113 Fishbourne Road

Bus stop suspension will be required on Main Road as works progress – buses will be operating as usual, for more information contact your bus service provider

Phase two: Old Park Lane, Fishbourne, Chichester – Monday 05 January for duration of 5 weeks

Road Closure – Old Park Lane will be closed from the junction with Main Road (side of The Globe House) to the corner with Beggars Roost Nursing Home.

Phase three: Salthill Road, Fishbourne, Chichester – 02 February for duration of 5 weeks

Road Closure – Salthill Road will be closed at the level crossing to Roman Way.

Phase four: Mill Close, Chichester – 16 February for duration of 6 weeks

Give and take – traffic management on the Mill Close will be under give and take past our work location

Phase five: Mill Lane, Chichester – 09 March for duration of 3 weeks

Road Closure – Access only to residents – Mill Lane will be closed – access only to properties.
