Council agrees to start work on Phase 2 of the South East Aylesbury Link Road

Buckinghamshire Council will start work shortly on Phase 2 of the South East Aylesbury Link Road (SEALR) scheme.

SEALR will see the construction of 1.1 miles of dual carriageway including three new roundabout junctions designed to ease congestion in Aylesbury and provide an easier route for traffic to flow without going through the town centre. The new link road will join the A413 Wendover Road with the Stoke Mandeville Relief Road, which is being constructed by HS2.

The council is coordinating the SEALR scheme with the project moving forward in two phases. Phase 2 will connect the B4443 Lower Road to a new roundabout junction with both the Stoke Mandeville Relief Road and future South West Aylesbury Link Road.

Buckinghamshire Council Leader Martin Tett said:

“To grow and thrive, Buckinghamshire needs the right infrastructure in place, so it’s great news that we’ve been able to approve the delivery of Phase 2 of the South East Aylesbury Link Road.

“The scheme is a crucial project that will unlock housing delivery in Aylesbury by accommodating for increased traffic in the future.”

Work recently started on Wendover Road roundabout and Phase 2 works are scheduled to start in March 2024.
