			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The works involved the installation of a temporary lane closure on Sutton Common road and a traffic diversion route.  The existing single box beam barrier was removed and replaced with a new crash barrier system in accordance with up to date regulations.  Due to restrictions the new barrier had to be installed on the same alignment as the existing barrier and therefore  a 450mm clearance could not be achieved.  The new barrier posts were installed with concrete surrounds.</p>
