Coronavirus support and information
Local information on coronavirus, including service changes, business support, how to get help and vaccinations.HS2 Construction: closures and diversions
Temporary rights of way route closures and diversions started in January 2018 and are likely to extend up to 2024/5.
They include preliminary works such as:
- environmental mitigation planting and fencing
- archaeology
- installation of haul roads
- relocating utilities such as gas, water and electrical apparatus
Construction of the Chiltern’s tunnel is underway, resulting in diversions/closures at the two tunnel portals:Denham/Maple Cross and Great Missenden, as well as vent shafts in between Bottom House Farm Lane and Little Missenden.
Closures and diversions for walkers, cyclists and horse riders around the construction works are listed below. Some access may be escorted through construction sites by ‘banksmen’.
All diversions use Schedule 17 powers outlined in the High Speed Rail (London – West Midlands) Act 2017. View HS2 reports and maps. The council cannot refuse closures but has the opportunity to comment.
