Hide AdConstruction work on the Stocklake link road will eventually result in Bierton Road being used as a diversion, but Transport For Bucks says that this will not be during this current roadworks period.
And the area could see more construction work in the next few months if a judicial review on Bierton Crematorium finds in the project’s favour on March 22.
A spokesman for Transport for Bucks (TFB) said: “TFB has checked with contractors preparing to build the new Stocklake Urban road nearby, to make sure Bierton Road is resurfaced before it is needed as a temporary diversion route for Stocklake. “

Hide AdMark Shaw, Bucks County Council’s cabinet member for transport, said: “Road resurfacing is that the top of residents’ priorities, and we’re doing all we can to get this work done soon.
“I’m sorry for the inconvenience to everyone, but for a little pain there will be a lot of gain.”
During the works temporary traffic lights guide a single lane of traffic down much of the top end of the road, close to Aylesbury Prison.
