Carriageway resurfacing and Pavement replacement in Fryent.


Good news for Fryent residents if you live in the following streets in Fryent - the Council has recently announced plans to resurface some roads and pavements. This is part of a large annual maintenance programme throughout the Borough costing over 5 million pounds.

Lewgars Avenue and Wakemans Hill Avenue  have been selected for road surface renewal and and Elthorne Way and Townsend Lane for pavement replacement.

The work on Wakemans Hill Ave will start soon and hopefully be completed within a week. The work on Lewgars Ave will commence on 29th July and should take about 2 days, all the schemes are subject to suitable weather conditions.

Work on pavement improvements will commence on 25 th July and residents will receive letters telling them when the contractors will start in their road. Parking restrictions, if applicable, will be suspended. Some pavements slabs are being replaced with Tarmac which is both cheaper and more resilient. Residents can also apply for extensions to vehicle crossovers.

Residents in affected roads will also be advised that vehicles left on roads will be removed and relocated by the contractor if it impedes the work.

The work is being undertaken by the Council contractor Conway Aecom.

  1. Sounds actually like terrible news for Fryent ward: tonnes of streets and roads need work in the area but only 4 actually get selected to have any work done.
    Slow clap for Brent

    1. Thanks for comment Anonymous, yes it is only a few roads but this is additional to our annual maintenance work. As a result of Governement austerity we have lost millions of pounds - it is difficult to do more with less.
