Major roadworks in busy part of Northampton set to affect thousands of motorists have been POSTPONED
“We apologise for any inconvenience.”
Thousands of motorists can breathe a sigh of relief after major roadworks in a busy part of Northampton have been POSTPONED.
The closure of Bants Lane and Chiltern Avenue was scheduled to start today (November 6) to November 10, and then be served by temporary traffic lights until December 3.
However, West Northants Council (WNC) has postponed those plans because of a major road closure nearby at Sandy Lane.
A WNC spokeswoman said: “The Chiltern Avenue traffic signal upgrade scheme due to commence on Monday (November 6) for a period of four weeks has been postponed to spring 2024.
"Due to the Sandy Lane road closure, we have carried out an assessment on potential congestion in the local area and decided to defer the scheme. Residents and stakeholders have been informed of this, and we apologise for any inconvenience.”
