Park Hill Loughton Road Closed

PARK HILL in Loughton will be subject to temporary restrictions over the next five days, starting from 00:00 on 13 August 2026, and ending at 00:00 on 17 August 2026. The works will be carried out by Essex County Council, who are undertaking minor repairs on the road.

Motorists should be aware that PARK HILL will be closed, with traffic management in place to direct drivers safely through the area. This is expected to cause some disruption to commuters and locals alike, so it is essential to plan ahead to avoid any potential delays. If you need to travel through the area during this time, we recommend checking traffic and travel apps, such as Google Maps or Waze, for the latest information and to find alternative routes.

The diversion route will be clearly signposted, and residents and business owners will be kept informed of any changes to the schedule. However, we strongly advise drivers to exercise caution and follow the recommended alternative routes to ensure a safe and smooth journey. The roadworks are expected to cause a medium level of disruption, and we understand the inconvenience this may cause.

If you can, consider working from home or adjusting your travel plans to avoid the area altogether. For those who cannot avoid the area, be prepared for potential delays and plan your journey accordingly. Motorists are also advised to consider using public transport, cycling, or walking as alternative options.

The works are part of an ongoing maintenance programme by Essex County Council to ensure the road network remains safe and well-maintained. We appreciate your patience and cooperation during this time and will do our best to keep you updated with any further developments.
