Published requirement description

  • Improvement to existing Pack Hill, leading to the proposed SCR roundabout;
  • New roundabout at the junction of the SCR and Pack Hill;
  • New T-Junction and realignment of The Marsh;
  • New bridge over Liden Brook and two culverts to accommodate local minor live streams;
  • New signalised crossroads at the junction with Wanborough Road; and;
  • Tie-in with the NEV development based on the 2016 Masterplan
