Works are underway at the Forest Road, Wood Street and Fulbourne Road junction

Work has started at the junction of Forest Road, Wood Street and Fulbourne Road, which may affect traffic in the area.

Following preparatory works carried out in late 2025, we are now constructing improvements on the southern arm of the junction.

The northbound bus stop on Wood Street (Forest Road / Wood Street Library) will be temporarily relocated nearby to maintain accessibility.

We’re working closely with Transport for London to monitor and coordinate traffic flow throughout the works.

We will notify residents and businesses in advance of any particularly disruptive works taking place directly outside their properties. Where necessary, temporary parking or loading dispensations will be arranged for affected properties.

Thank you for your continued patience and support as we work to make Forest Road safer, more accessible, and more efficient for everyone.
