Progress is being made across the site at Cutteslowe and Wolvercote
 
Anyone travelling through the area will see significant changes on both Cutteslowe and Wolvercote roundabouts. A significant amount of excavation has been taking place on Cutteslowe with Wolvercote roundabout taking a different shape thanks to the new kerbs and other major developments.

Latest progress

At Cutteslowe we have:

• Completed the work in the central reservation on the A40 Elsfield Way and have moved into the verges. We’re now removing the kerbs and excavating the verges in order to widen into them with the newly constructed lanes. This work will continue into February.
• Removed nearly all of the excavated material on the roundabout
• Ongoing work in Jackson Road, re-shaping the island and adding drainage. We will be re-opening the road on or before 5^th November

At Wolvercote we are:

• Installing the cable ducts on the A40 and A44. This is for the traffic lights and the street lighting.  
• Preparing to resurface the A40 in the next two weeks with the A44 resurfacing following afterwards
• Continuing to install the kerbs on the A40 and A44
