As part of the new bridged junction's construction, the northbound lanes of the A1, between Harlaxton and Little Ponton, are now temporarily diverted to a new section of A1 carriageway.
What we achieved in February
- Opened the new, widened section of the A1 to traffic as part of traffic switchover, allowing for works to the first of the new bridged junction
- Constructed a working platform and guidewall for the piling rig to be used for the new bridge's abutments
- Commenced Anglian Water diversion
- Repaired internal haul roads damaged by severe weather over recent months
- Started vegetation clearance and carry out final archaeological works for Phase Three
What's happening in March
- Begin piling works to the western half of the new bridge's underpass
- Re-start earthworks to the western and eastern roundabout and slip roads, including lime modification, following recent weather
- Complete Anglian Water diversion
- Carry out piling works adjacent to the A1's northbound carriageway
- Continued vegetation clearance and carry out final archaeological works for Phase Three
Upcoming traffic restrictions and closures
- Full night-time lane closure on the northbound A1 between Little Ponton and Harlaxton from Sunday 29 March to Monday 6 April from 8pm to 6am
- Diversion route via A606 at Stamford to A607 to A1 at Harlaxton
