Three Aylesbury projects included in council's full list of roadworks after week of traffic chaos
Three road improvement projects in Aylesbury have been included in the council’s full list of roadworks for next week.
This comes after additional emergency works authorised by the council caused traffic chaos throughout Aylesbury.
Children were forced to start exams late, residents missed commuter trains and people were stuck in traffic for three times the normal duration in Aylesbury.
Issues were linked to emergency repairs on traffic light systems, Thames Water emergency works, and previously scheduled road improvement projects.
