From Wednesday 25th February until Tuesday 3rd March, Askerfield Avenue in Allestree has been closed without prior warning for emergency Cadent gas works.
The island by Kedleston Grange is now under three‑way traffic lights, which means we’re unable to turn around there as normal.
To keep the allestree moving, we’ll be using a diversion along Blenheim Drive and Allestree Lane.

🚫 Bus stops we can’t serve during the closure
- Askerfield Avenue (by Kedleston Grange)
- Robert Adam Road
- Menin Road
- Allestree Lane End
- Scarsdale Avenue
- Blenheim Drive (please wait at the stop on the opposite side)
- Haddon Drive (please wait opposite)
- Hardwick Avenue (please wait opposite)
- Askerfield Avenue (by Premier Store — please wait opposite)
We know this is a sudden change, and our drivers are doing everything they can to keep your journey running smoothly while Cadent complete their work.
Thanks for bearing with us — we’ll return to the normal route as soon as the road reopens.
