Stretch of A43 between Kettering and Northampton to get 40mph speed limit
A 40mph speed limit is set to be imposed on a stretch of the A43 between Kettering and Northampton.
The restriction will cover the section road immediately to the north and south of the Hannington crossroads, as well as the side roads which head east and west.
The order has been proposed by West Northants Council as it is responsible for that part of the A43, which currently has a 60mp speed limit.
The 40mph speed limit will extend 164 metres northwards from the crossroads, and 190 metres in the opposite direction.


It will also encompass the first 300 metres of Red House Road to the east, and 1,420 metres of Red House Lane towards the village of Hannington.
A copy of the proposed order, a map showing the exact lengths of roads to which it relates and a statement of the council’s reasons for proposing to make the order are available for inspection (by appointment only) at: Kier Highways, Highways Depot, Old Harborough Road, Brixworth, NN6 9BX. To arrange an appointment, call 01604 529700.
Due to essential system upgrades, this information is temporarily unavailable on the council’s website. Copies may be obtained by emailing [email protected].
Any person wishing to object to, support, or make representations regarding the proposed order must do so in writing, stating the grounds on which they are made, quoting reference number P2128 to the above Kier Highways address, or by email to [email protected]
All representations must be received no later than March 26.
