Residents warned of 'noise' and 'disruption' with overnight gas works on road to Hayling Island

SGN has issued a warning it will be carrying out gas repair work in Langstone Road between 7pm and 5am overnight on November 9/10.

Temporary traffic lights will be put in place before the bridge to ‘ensure the safety of everyone near to the work site’.

On November 9 work will be carried out on the southbound part of the carriageway going towards Hayling with work the following day taking place on the northbound carriageway towards Havant.

An email from SGN to those affected said: ‘Noise will be kept to a minimum after 10pm to manage to prevent any further disruption to the residents living close by.

‘We do appreciate that work in the road can cause disruption and to minimise this our team of engineers will be working overnight.

‘Once completed, this repair will allow us to continue to provide a safe and reliable gas supply to the surrounding area.’
