A CITY centre road will close at the end of the month and not reopen for the remainder of the year due to the ongoing Chester Clockwise scheme. Nuns Road is to shut on Monday, March 29 as part of the current works in the city to install a new surface rainwater drain. The closure is currently expected to last until January 2022 to allow for construction and operation of a drainage tunnel shaft at the Grosvenor Road junction. As a result, only emergency vehicles will have access to this junction for safety reasons. Access-only routes to Blackfriars, Nuns Road properties, Roomzzz Aparthotel and from the HQ Building/Abode Hotel car park exit will remain open to and from the Watergate Street direction only.
