Reading Borough Council is committing the first £2m of a new £8m investment on the major road programme which will also see a substantial number of residential roads improved over the next four years.
The ongoing work requires road closures and restrictions to access and parking. Scheduled work is listed below but can sometimes be postponed, delayed or extended due to unforeseen circumstances. See our frequently asked questions about resurfacing requirements for further information.
