Important roadworks information – A1 Wyboston to Buckden: resurfacing

There will  be essential resurfacing works on the A1 between the above locations. As part of this work,  faded road markings will be renewed.

 

The work has been planned over nine weeks, from Thursday 24 September to Friday 20 November, working between the hours of 8pm to 6am on weeknights, subject to weather conditions.

 

Due to the extensive amount of work on this project, it has been split  into four phases.

Northbound traffic wanting to leave the A1 at Wyboston will continue to the Hail Bridge junction and return southbound to the A1/A428 Wyboston Interchange. (Diagram 1)

 

Phase 2: A1/A428 Wyboston Interchange, northbound and southbound entry slip roads from Wednesday 30 September to Monday 5 October (4 nights)
