Cambridgeshire County Council has informed us that the resurfacing works are now substantially complete and New Road has now re-opened. The contractors have advised that they still need to: replace the ironwork on 7 manhole covers, finish off some works to the kerbs and finally complete the line painting.
This work can all be undertaken without road closures using localised two-way traffic control. They have scheduled these final elements to be done Tuesday 26 October and Wednesday 27 October.

New Road and Cantelupe Rd will be closed to through traffic during the works. Access to properties will be maintained throughout but patience is requested at certain times as machinery may need to be moved.
