Public notices: Road closures planned for Royal Windsor Triathlon

In the public notices this week, there are several road closures proposed to make way for the Royal Windsor Triathlon in June. An applicant also seeks permission for mineral extraction in Iver.

Traffic

The Royal Borough proposes to temporarily close various roads and prevent right turns on others on Sunday, June 15 for The Royal Windsor Triathlon.

Starting with a swim in the River Thames, triathletes then ride a bike route that heads through the streets of Windsor, passing the Castle, and out into the surrounding countryside.

To complete their challenge, participants will then run into Windsor Great Park and along the Long Walk.

In order to make sure runners are safe, the council seeks to close the following roads at the following times:

From 5am to 9.15am:

• Barry Avenue – From the Railway Viaduct to its junction with Vansittart Road
• Stovell Road – Entire length
• Vansittart Road – At its junction with Stovell Road
• Clewer Court Road – Entire length
• Stephenson Drive – At its junction with Clewer Court Road
• Mill Lane – Between its junctions with A308 Maidenhead Road and Clewer Court Road

From 5am to 10.30am:

• A332 Kings Road Roundabout – Closure on the roundabout between westbound and eastbound lanes of the A308 Osborne Road

From 5am to noon:

• Goswell Road – Entire length
• Barry Avenue – From its junction with River Street to Railway Viaduct
• River Street – Entire length
• Thames Street – Entire length
• Thames Avenue – Entire length
• B470 Datchet Road – Between its junctions with Thames Street and Farm Yard
• Park Street – Entire length
• B3022 High Street – Entire length
• B3022 Sheet Street – Between its junctions with Victoria Street and High Street

The Royal Borough is also prohibiting right turning of traffic from 5am to 10.45am on:

Planning

Colne Valley Motorway Service Area Ltd is applying for planning permission for mineral extraction at land adjacent To M25, between Junctions 15 & 16 on Iver Heath.

It also wants to create an access to facilitate the development of the Colne Valley Services and associated works proposed under planning application reference PL/20/4332/OA.

This is counted as a ‘major development’ and one which may have significant effects on the environment. It also affects a public right of way and a listed building.

All the planning application documentation can be downloaded from the planning portal on Buckinghamshire Council’s website.
