50mph speed limit to be cut on two main roads through Bexley
A temporary speed reduction will soon be enforced on two main roads in Bexley.
The London Borough of Bexley has announced that the speed limit on Picardy Manorway and Bronze Age Way will be cut from 50mph to 30mph.
This is to allow the JSM Group to carry out the necessary works for grid connection and cable works safely.
On Picardy Manorway, the speed reduction will be in effect from the junction with Norman Road to the horse roundabout at the junction with Anderson Way, Belvedere.
On Bronze Age Way, the new speed limit will apply from the horse roundabout at the junction with Anderson Way to Queens Road, Erith.
The temporary speed limits will come into effect on Thursday (February 20) and will be in place for up to 18 months.
However, it is anticipated that the works will be completed in 23 days.
During this period, no alternative routes will be available.
The speed restrictions will only be in effect when indicated by traffic signs.
The changes will not apply to emergency service vehicles or vehicles involved in the works.
The new speed limits are part of a Temporary Restriction of Vehicular Traffic Order 2025, made under the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984.
Further enquiries about the notice can be addressed to Riverside Energy Park Ltd on 07834 173557.
The notice was signed by Andrew Bashford, Head of Highways, Traffic, and Infrastructure, and dated February 12, 2025.

Gas firm revises pipework plans after disruption
The firm behind a project to replace gas pipes near a busy junction in Hull has confirmed it has revised its plans to "minimise the inconvenience" caused by the works. Northern Gas Networks has told the BBC it would remove temporary three-way traffic lights from Beverley Road, at the Strand Close junction, on Monday. It followed complaints from motorists that the work, which started on 27 May, had caused delays at the junction of Beverley Road, Ferensway, Freetown Way and Spring Bank. Officials said a "rolling closure" of a bus lane would be in force for 12 weeks while contractors work to replace aging metal pipework with a plastic variant. Northern Gas Networks had apologised on Thursday for the disruption caused by the roadworks and said it had held talks with Hull City Council. In a statement, the firm said the "only remaining restriction" would be the closure of a section of the northbound bus lane on Beverley Road. A spokesperson added: "This will initially be closed from the junction with Strand Close and will be a rolling closure which will gradually move up Beverley Road."
