Closure of A49 at Hadnall – an update

The A49 was closed at Hadnall yesterday, Tuesday 8 November, (see map) after Severn Trent Water discovered a burst water main. Repairs to the water main are now complete, and the road now needs to be reinstated.

The road is likely to be closed until Friday (11 November), but we hope it will be open before then.

Northbound through traffic should follow the signed diversion route via the A53 to Tern Hill, and A41 to Prees Heath.

Southbound traffic should follow the signed diversion route via the A41 from Prees Heath to Tern Hill and continue south on the A53 to Battlefield island.

Access to all properties and businesses on the A49 will be maintained during the works.
