Hertfordshire County Council has issued a series of public notices detailing upcoming traffic modifications and temporary road closures across various locations in the county. These changes are set to commence in January 2025, with durations varying up to 18 months, depending on the specific order.

The notices include several modification orders under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, such as the addition of a new footpath near Sandon. This footpath will extend from the public highway opposite Doebridge Farm to Sandon Footpath 23.

Additionally, temporary closures and waiting restrictions will affect numerous roads and footpaths due to proposed works. Notable closures include:

• Ware Public Footpath No.015: Closed from Priory Street to Park Road for utility works.
• A10 Buntingford Bypass: Closed from the A10/London Road roundabout to the A507/B1038 Baldock Road roundabout.

• A1170 London Road, Ware: Closed from Viaduct Road to Post Wood Road.
• Admiral Street, Hertford: Closed for utility service works.
• Burnt Mill Lane, Harlow: Closed for utility service works.

Alternative routes have been provided where possible, although some roads will not have alternatives during the closure period. Access to properties will be maintained whenever feasible.

Residents and commuters are advised to plan their journeys accordingly and pay attention to signage indicating when restrictions are in effect. Those who have any concerns or believe they may be adversely impacted by these changes are encouraged to contact the relevant authorities listed in each notice.
