Upcoming Road Closures and Diversion Routes on the A428 Black Cat to Caxton Gibbet
Date Added: 12/02/2025
Road closures and diversion routes will be in place from Monday 24 February to Monday 3 March 2025. The road closures are needed for the safety of the public and to protect the workforce as they continue to build new connections for Chawston, Roxton, and Wyboston. As there is limited space available at the roadside, the closures provide the additional room needed to carry out the work safely and efficiently. National Highways is aware that this may cause inconvenience and hence, appreciate your cooperation of the public as they improve journeys between Milton Keynes, Bedford, and Cambridgeshire.
As part of the A428 Black Cat to Caxton Gibbet improvement scheme, access to and from the A1 northbound for The Lane, Nagheads Lane, Chawston Lane and several private dwellings will be closed. As a result of this, a new link road will be provided to give these lanes and private dwellings access to the Black Cat junction. This link road will run between The Lane at Wyboston and Roxton Road, also picking up traffic from Nagshead Lane and Chawston Lane. A new bridge will then take traffic over the A421 to meet Bedford Road, where traffic can join the roundabout at the Black Cat junction.
