Over the next month, multiple roads in Cambridgeshire are set to be closed whilst roadworks are carried out. Several roads around St Neots will be closed by National Highways with diversions being put in place.
From Monday, February 9, until Saturday, February 14, the A1 southbound between Wyboston and Tempsford will be closed from 9pm to 5am to allow for new street lighting, permanent signage, and CCTV to be installed. There will be a diversion in place by exiting the A1 at Wyboston Interchange, taking the A428 towards St Neots, and re-joining the A1 at Tempsford Interchange.
To allow for the installation of new drainage, kerbs, and resurfacing, Potton Road from the B1046 junction to south of Eynesbury Plant Hire and the B1046 from Potton Road rail bridge to Lansbury Farm will also be closed. The closure will be in place from 9am on Friday, February 13, until 6am on Monday, February 23.
Traffic will be diverted south on Barford Road taking the first exit onto the A428 eastbound to then continue on A428 towards St Neots. You can then head onto south on B1046 at Eltisley and take Gransden Road and re-join St Neots Road.
The A421 westbound between the Black Cat junction and Renhold Interchange and Bedford Road between Roxton Garden Centre and the Black Cat roundabout will be closed overnight from Monday, February 16, to Saturday, February 21. The roads will be closed from 9pm to 5am to allow for the installation of new street lighting, permanent signage, and CCTV.
A diversion will be in place for drivers to continue south on the A1 and then take the A603 towards Bedford. Drivers will then re-join the A421 westbound at Cardington Interchange.
National Highways is installing rigid grids near to the A421 westbound and will be closing the road between the Black Cat junction and Renhold Interchange. The closure will be in place from 9pm on Friday, February 20, until 5am on Monday, February 23.
