From the Parish Clerk – an email has been received this afternoon (26th March 2021) from Highways Dept. of Cambridgeshire County Council regarding the proposed road closure:

I am writing to advise you of a Road Closure that will be happening very shortly, in order to facilitate essential carriageway maintenance.

At the time of this letter, currently scheduled Friday 9th April 2021 for approximately two days (Dependent on Weather) – Carriageway Surface Dressing Treatment.

Whilst the work is in progress, during operational hours, the road will be closed from approximately 7.30am to 6pm, and vehicular access will be restricted. A signed diversion route will be in place for through traffic.

In order for the contractor to complete the work with minimum disruption, it is essential that no vehicles are parked on the road. If you have particular access requirements, please speak to a member of the crew onsite who will be able to assist.

Access to properties within the closure area will be possible, but are subject to working conditions, and delays are to be expected. Crews will be working in accordance with Covid 19 guidelines.

These works are weather dependent and changes are possible at short notice. As there will be no further letters regarding these works, please look out for the advanced notices on site, as these will give the most up to date information; or contact our call centre or email as above.
