Bowmer + Kirkland has begun work to construct a roundabout for the primary vehicular access to the new Leigh Academy Rainham secondary school in Otterham Quay Lane, at the junction with Blackthorne Road.
Working in agreement with Medway Council, the roadworks will take place under 2-way temporary traffic lights and will require lane closures for up to 12 weeks.
The developer aims to complete the works as quickly as possible to avoid disruption and make sure access for residents is maintained.
The academy will also have 2 separated pedestrian crossing points for safe access to the school for both students and staff, expected to arrive from different directions.
