Gas works to cause delays around White City until 19th December

Drivers are advised to “expect delays” in White City via Wood Lane until Friday, 19^th December due to “urgent” Cadent Gas roadworks. The “disruptive” gas works have begun at the junctions of Wood Lane, Scrubs Lane, and North Pole Road. The work began on Monday, 13^th October, “significantly affecting traffic, buses, and pedestrians,” with lane closures, temporary traffic lights, and bus diversions in place.

Cadent Gas has informed Hammersmith & Fulham Council that they need to urgently upgrade the gas pipes in the area. To minimise disruption for local people caused by the gas works, the council is “insisting the gas company complete the work as quickly as possible,” and “receiving regular updates from Cadent Gas on their progress.” There are no planned interruptions of gas supply for local residents.
