"Transport for London (TfL) stated that the works would ensure the A40 flyover could continue to be used safely, despite the necessary disruption to journeys."
"The Federation of Small Businesses (FSB) indicated that the A40 closure is going to have a 'huge impact' on the economy in west London, affecting small business owners significantly."
"Stuart Harvey from TfL acknowledged the disruption caused by the works and thanked the local community for their patience during this essential maintenance period."
The A40 in west London will undergo a closure for more than a month starting Friday evening to replace critical structural joints. Transport for London (TfL) stated that this work is essential for the safe use of the flyover. Local businesses expressed concerns about the disruption and financial implications. The road, which opened in 1970, has deteriorated significantly, leading to a reduced speed limit. The closure will allow for the replacement of two major joints, ensuring the flyover can safely expand and contract.
