We've received reports of increased congestion in St Helen's due to the closure of the Westway for longer than initially planned. Along with your local MP and Dalgarno councillors, we wrote to TfL on Thursday to get answers for our residents on the duration of closure and what supports and temporary measures are being offered. As of this Friday night we received an update from TfL that an A40 westbound lane has been re-opened to alleviate traffic.
We will keep you updated on the Westway reopening, and do get in touch with us by email with any feedback or concerns, especially if this partial reopening is not leading to improvements in the traffic you experience.
