ROAD closures will be in place for three weeks as the regeneration in Wrexham city centre enters its final stages.
Wrexham Council has confirmed that to allow their contractor Griffiths, to complete the final phases of works on city centre improvements and in order to join the new road surface from Chester Street to High Street, they will need to temporarily close the roads leading to the junction between Chester Street, Charles Street and High Street for the works to be carried out safely.
The closure will start on Monday, October 7 and end on Friday, October 25.
Chester Street will be closed to all vehicles from the junction with Bank Street towards Charles Street/High Street and there will be no access to vehicles beyond this junction to Charles Street/High Street until the works have been completed.
Access for pedestrians will remain open throughout this phase of the works.
For business deliveries, a provision of a drop-off point will be made available at the eastern end of High Street. The local authority say Griffiths staff will be available and happy to help by providing a porter service from this location to individual businesses.

Refuse/waste collections will be at both ends of Chester Street (i.e. as far as the Bank Street junction) and at the exit of Charles Street.
Cllr Nigel Williams, Lead Member for Economy and Regeneration said “This is an exciting and pivotal time for the works in our city centre.
“Unfortunately these big projects can’t be completed without some disruption, however our contractors aim to keep disruption to a minimum, and complete the works as soon as possible.”
