Current roadworks, planned roadworks and road closures

Major works will commence on Monday 31^st March and will last in the region of 21 months. Gateway One is a large-scale urban regeneration project focusing on the area around the Train Station and West Street and adjacent to Trafford Way, that will transform the part of the city with a new office development, that will act as a new digital technology business hub, as well as green spaces, and improved infrastructure.

To achieve these works the demolition of existing buildings will initially take place, and in the coming weeks the dedicated nearside lane of Trafford Way, that leads to West Street and the rail station forecourt, will be closed to allow for hoardings to be erected to encompass this area for site safety. These works are planned to take place overnight from 7pm and 6am between 25^th April and 2^nd May with Trafford Way reduced to a single lane during these hours.

Following these works, the lane for West Street and Doncaster Station will be closed up to the West Street access on Trafford Way Westbound (from the Cleveland Street roundabout). This will leave two lanes on Trafford Way for the full duration of the works, which is expected to be completed in December 2026. This may impact on vehicle flows especially during peak periods (although access to West Street and the Rail Station will still be available).

Overnight restrictions will also be in place on West Street from 15^th to 25^th April 2025, with access to residential areas on St Sep West accessed via the station loop road.

Additional overnight closures/diversions may be needed during the project and will be communicated closer to the time.

National Highways are undertaking major works on the A1 north of Doncaster to include Junction 39 at Wentbridge Viaduct. Further information can be found on the National Highways website.

Works are in progress on new housing development close to MacCauley (Warning Tongue Lane) Roundabout which include changing the road layout and installation of utility services.  Temporary traffic lights will be required close to and on the roundabout during these works - these will be controlled by an operative between the hours of 07:00 and 19:00 to maintain the flow of traffic as much as possible. Works will be carried out within the school summer holidays where possible, however the works in total are not due to be completed until around November 2025 where there will be a series of overnight road closures for final surfacing. If you are traveling along the carriageway during these dates, please allow extra time for your journey and be prepared for temporary traffic lights. We thank you for your patience while these necessary works are completed.                   

Between Sunday 27 July and Monday 28 July, resurfacing works will be taking place at a number of locations along the A19 in Toll Bar and Bentley to support essential upgrades to pedestrian crossings in those areas.

Work to improve walking, wheeling and cycling facilities between Highfields and Jossey Lane is due to begin on Monday 21st July 2025. The improvements will include widening the existing footway on the western side of York Road, enhancing the crossing facilities at The Sycamores and Green Lane junctions, upgrading the existing street lighting infrastructure and bus stops and clearing overgrown vegetation from the area. To accommodate the workforce while the works are in progress, York Road will be reduced to one lane. Access to properties off York Road will be maintained. While the lane closure is in place City of Doncaster Council will also be undertaking some carriageway resurfacing works between Stanley Road and Jossey Lane, with a full closure on Sunday 3rd August and drainage maintenance work to clean the dyke and remove 2 old field entrances to aid the flow of water between Stanley Road and The Sycamores. The works up to Green Lane are expected to be completed by September 2025. On completion of this section, work will then begin on constructing a new pathway on the western side of Great North Road leading from Green Lane to Highfields. The scheme has been programmed to be completed by December 2025, further updates will be provided as the scheme progresses.

CDC will be introducing a one-way outbound road closure between Clay Lane West and the entrance to Ardagh glass on Barnby Dun Road to undertake the construction of a cycleway along the Western side of Barnby Dun Road.

Works will commence from the 14^th of July 2025 with the one-way closure put in place. The closure outbound only will be in place for around 12 weeks. Works will commence around the entrance to Ardagh glass and work in a Southerly direction towards Clay Lane West.

Towards the end of the 12-week period we will have to extend the one-way closure to the roundabout on Wheatley Hall road to undertake footway resurfacing and associated works, this should take approx. 2 weeks to complete.

On completion of the cycleway works we will need a closure of Barnby Dun Road fully to undertake carriageway resurfacing works, this will be undertaken over two Sundays between the hours of 7am and 5pm. We will confirm the date when the extension to the outbound closure and Sunday closures will be undertaken nearer the time.
