Leicestershire County Council has granted the emergency temporary closure of Beggars Lane.

The closure is required on Beggars Lane at the junction with Mallard Way 20 metres either side of the junction.

Access for residents up to but not including Mallard Way from both ends of Beggars Lane will be maintained throughout the closure.

The road will be closed from 07:30 hours on Friday 9th August 2013 for up to 1 week.

This will enable contractors to safely install a sewer for a new development.

During the closure the alternative route will be via:

Forest House Lane, Warren Lane, A47 Hinckley Road and vice versa
