Anglian Water have been in touch about emergency work to fix a collapsed sewer in Shenfield Road, Brentwood. The works will be located in the highway just to the north of the mini roundabouts on Ongar Road which may cause some significant disruption in this busy High Street intersection.
The two southbound carriageways east bound from Wilson Corner roundabout to Sawyer Hall Lane will be closed for a week from today (1st March). Westbound traffic will use a single lane to access the road, however large vehicles are being advised to avoid the road and use the diversion for both ways.
The work should take about a week with access maintained for residents and there will be no disruption to Anglian Water customers’ facilities while this work takes place.
Anglian Water has written to local residents, thanking everyone for their patience whilst they carry out this urgent work. They are also in close contact with Brentwood Borough Council and Essex County Highways on this matter.
