During the closures suitably signed alternative routes will be available at all times. It will also be necessary, for 24 hours a day, at times during the works, to:
(v) impose a temporary 40mph, and at times a 10mph, speed restriction on the A64 eastbound and westbound carriageways from 1000 metres west of Sandy Lane Junction, West Knapton to 1800 metres east of Sandy Lane Junction, a distance of 2800 metres. The 10mph limit will only apply when, for safety reasons, traffic has to be escorted through the works by a highway maintenance vehicle; and
