Works to construct a new roundabout in Cramlington are reaching completion. 

The scheme is being carried out by a private contractor, Fred Mence Construction, on behalf of Bellway Homes and Persimmon Homes and are to fulfil the requirements of the planning permission for the housing developments at St Nicholas Manor adjacent to the A1171 Crow Hall Lane.  

The current works, with the west leg of Station Road roundabout being closed, is now almost complete and ready to be re-opened.  

From Monday, June 19, the contractor will move onto the final phase. This will involve closing the part of Station Road forming the east leg of the roundabout with the north, south and west legs all open.  

This is expected to last around three weeks and will include drainage and footpath works, removing and relaying the kerbs and the installation of the new pedestrian crossing and bus stop.  

After this there will only be the final surfacing works which will be confirmed shortly. Once this final resurfacing is complete all the roads will be opened and the scheme finished.
