December 2024 -

If you are one of the 95,961 residents of Hemel Hempstead, then you will know the deep impact of the planned closure of Three Cherry Trees Lane due to planned roadworks. This move dramatically affects a large proportion of Hemel Hempstead residents who utilise this key road daily for access, particularly to/from the M1. The closure will undoubtedly disrupt our lives in significant ways for 6 months.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There has not been an adequate explanation as to why Three Cherry Trees Lane needs to be closed during this period. Except - 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Roadworks are essential, but the planning must consider the impact on the residents it is set to affect. According to the Department for Transport, in 2019 there were 4 million miles of roadworks in the UK, causing a total delay of 53.6 million hours - a colossal waste of time for the public. 

Rather than closing Three Cherry Trees Lane entirely, we must find a solution that enables roadworks to happen and allows us to continue with our lives with minimal disruption. How? One possible solution is to carry out roadworks only during off-peak hours.

Hemel Hempstead and Woodhall Farm residents cannot afford the time and anxiety wasted on diversion and disruption due to road closure. We respectfully petition for the proposed plan to be reconsidered urgently.

Let us unite to keep Three Cherry Trees Lane open during these planned roadworks. Help ensure our concern is heard: Sign this petition!!
