St Peter's Square Programme of Works

Over the coming months, a series of carefully planned works will be carried out to complete the St. Peter’s Square public realm improvement scheme.

Over the coming months, a series of carefully planned works will be carried out to complete the St. Peter’s Square public realm improvement scheme. The following table provides an overview of the planned phases of work, including where and when each section will take place.

Traffic management systems and road closures are inevitable and will only be implemented where necessary to protect the public and Contractor’s workforce. Road closures during the Ruthin festival will be managed by the Contractor’s traffic management sub-contractors to ensure a co-ordinated approach.

All dates are indicative* and may be subject to change due to weather or programme adjustments, but every effort will be made to minimise disruption throughout the construction period.
