A14 C2H update – Bar Hill junction

Bar Hill junction roundabout (over the A14)

The lane drop around the gyratory is scheduled to be in place for another few weeks. The electrical items we’re awaiting to be delivered are scheduled to arrive early September. Once fitted, these electrical items will be tested to ensure compliance and safety. Once completed, the cones here can be removed.

Bar Hill junction roundabout to Saxon Way/ Crafts Way roundabout – downhill

The lane drop here will be in place until we have been able to install fencing. The closure of suppliers during the pandemic has meant the original fence type as per the design is not available and we are reviewing alternatives. As a consequence, unfortunately we’re unable to confirm when these cones will be removed. We are actively chasing suppliers to resolve this as quickly as possible.

Saxon Way/Crafts Way roundabout to Bar Hill junction roundabout – uphill

The lane drop here is in place for access to ongoing drainage works, followed by completion of the landscaping. The recent storms has meant this work has taken slightly longer than originally planned and currently we anticipate this work will be completed early October.

All works are currently due for completion at Bar Hill early October and we will provide you with a further update at the end of September.

Kind regards

Community Gritting Scheme 2020-21

This is a request for volunteers for this winter 2020-2021

The Community Gritting Scheme is a scheme where local volunteers can help to keep their community moving in freezing weather. Under this scheme, the parish council agrees specific routes in their area which are important to the local community with the county council.   The volunteers then grit these roads when needed, see the attached gritting training pack below for further information.  

If you would like to volunteer please speak to your local highway officer at Cambridgeshire County Council at  Cambridgeshire County Council, Highways Depot, Station Road, Whittlesford CB2 4NL or via email at highways@cambridgeshire.gov.uk
